The bar chart depicted the emissions from Britain’s three fossil fuels between 1990 and 2010.
The chart generally indicated an increase in the quantity of gas emissions, while the quantity of coal emissions exhibited a decrease throughout the specified time frame. Furthermore, the amount of oil emissions fluctuated.
According to the data, gas produced over 200 million tons of emissions in 1990. Over the next 20 years, from 1990 to 2010, emissions increased progressively, peaking at almost 325 million tons in 2010. In contrast, the amount of coal emissions peaked in 1990 at over 310 million tons and then quickly decreased during the same time period. The coal emissions chart peaked in 2010 at almost 190 million tons, which is less than the gas emissions.
It is important to note that throughout a 20-year span, the amount of oil emissions varied. Oil-related emissions began at roughly 275 million tons in 1990, dropped to around 240 million tons in 1995, and then increased to about 260 million tons in 2000. But during the next ten years, the graph showed an unexpected decline, going from 260 million tons in 2000 to less than 200 million tons in 2010.
