The line graph represents the recycling rate of four distinct materials [paper and cardboard, glass containers, aluminum cans, and plastics] between 1982 and 2010 in a certain nation.
Overall, as it can be clearly seen, paper and cardboard were the greatest recycling materials; following that, glass containers were the second most reproduced item. Plastics are the very least reproduced material.
Getting into the details, paper and cardboard started around 50 percent at the beginning of the year. It oscillated before reaching a peak of 80 percent in 1994 and then collapsed to 70 at the end of the year, 2010. Next, glass containers commenced at 50 percent; although it dropped 10% in the quarter of the graph, it continued to rise to 60.
Lately, aluminum cans were started only after a year at a rate of 5%, yet surprisingly, it subsequentially surged to 45% by 2010. Plastic recycling was very few among all materials; it began in the year 1990 with 2% and was fractionally growing to reach 10%.
