The graph below depicts national recycling rates of waste in Britain over 51 years.
In general, the most dramatic change was seen from the graph that the percentage of garbage recovery leaped considerably between 1960 and 2011. For the first ten years the percentage of recycling remained relatively steady.
At the begining, an amount of garbage tripled over the next 15 years, from 5, 6 tons in 1960 to 16, 7 tons in 1985. In the same period, the amount of trash recycled grew steadily by 3. 7%. During the next stage, the recovered garbage saw an upward trend between 1985 and 2011 when it hit the highest point at 86. 9 million tons. Meanwhile, the recycling rate coutinued to climb rapidly by 18 percent to 34, 7 percent in 2011. However, by compasion, both of these range have an sharp increase comparing with the begin.
