Band 6+: WRITING TASK 1 Que. The table below shows CO2 emissions for different forms of transport in the European Union. The Pie Chart shows the percentage of European Union funds being spent on different forms of transport. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. You should write at least 150 words.

The bar chart depicts the emission of CO2 from different forms of transport in the European Union, while the pie chart illustrates the percentage of funds spend on different transport by European Union.

Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the higher emission of CO2 is from air, while least emission is from coaches. Likewise, most of the funds were spend on roads and railways.

With regards to emission of CO2, the air accounted the highest figure of just above 350 grams of CO2 per passenger. Then, passenger cars has more than 100 grams of CO2 per passenger. Following this, maritime and rail have almost similar rate. After that, buses were at slightly above 60 grams of CO2 per passenger. In addition, coaches has the least amount of emission as it has less than 40 grams of CO2 per passenger.

Consequently, the highest funds were given to road transport as it has around a half. In addition, the second highest amount was spend on railways and it has more than 30%. Moreover, funds distributed for public transport was at 10%. Next, intermodal, inland waterway and airports were at similar figures, which was at 1%. Also, ports and other transports were provided 2% of funds by European Union.
