The line graph and the bar chart demonstrate and predict CO₂ emissions and the figures for cars, buses, vans, and trucks from 2000 to 2030 in England and Wales.
Overall, the line graph shows a dramatic increase in vehicle numbers over a 30-year period. Moreover, the bar chart illustrates and forecasts the influence of these vehicles on the CO₂ footprint. The number of cars has a significant effect on this emission, whereas buses have the lowest impact.
Focusing on the line chart, it displays a slight rise from 20 million to 35 million in the years 2000 and 2010, respectively. After 2010, these values have a marginal incline, which is predicted to peak at nearly 80 million in 2030.
An interesting point in the bar chart is that cars affect this period. On the one hand, the initial amount of car and truck emissions was approximately 2.1 and 0.7, and these numbers rise year by year, reaching 3 and almost 1.3, respectively, in 2030. On the other hand, the quantity of vans and buses slightly increased from about 0.5 and 0.3 to 0.8 and 0.5 in 2000 and 2010, respectively. Predictions for these values are expected to remain stable until 2030.
