The line chart outlines how much waste was recycled in the US between 1960 and 2011. The garbage recycling is presented both in quantity, in million tons, and percentage. Generally speaking, waste recycling in the US after 1985 increased remarkably despite a big proportion of litter remained unrecycled.
As the data suggests, 5. 6 million tons rubbish was recycled in the USA in 1960 which accounted for 6. 4% of the trash production in this year. The recycling in 1965 slightly declined but increased in 1970 when 6. 6% waste recycling took place. In 1980, more than 14 million tons of garbage was recycled and it developed by almost 2% after 5 years. After a decade, 16% of total waste was recycled and this ratio after that increased steadily.
It's clear that the percentage of recycling from 1960 to 1980 rose gradually. In 1960, the trash reproduction accounted for 6, 4% and after 25 years, it peaked 10, 1%. In addition, there was a slight growth, only 24, 6% of the percatage of recycling took place during a decade from 1985 to 2011.
