The graph below shows the household recycling rates in three different countries between 2005 and 2015.

The line graph illustrates the household recycling rates in the UK, France and Germany from 2005 to 2015. Overall, the recycling rates of the UK and Germany showed a steady but significant rise over the period, while the percentage of recycled waste in France experienced a downward trend. In 2005, the recycling rates for the UK and Germany were nearly 35% and 20% respectively. Germany's rate increased sharply throughout the period, exceeding France's rate in 2009 and reaching almost 60% at the end of the period. In the meantime, the percentage of recycled waste in the UK grew to 40% in 2007, and then remained steady until 2009. During 2009-2011, it experienced a rapid surge to more than 50% and continued with a gradual increase to 60% in 2015. In 2005, the figure for France (50%) was the highest among these three countries. However, it dramatically declined to 30% in 2013. Then, there was a growth of 10% in 2015, but France's recycling rate was the lowest at the end of the period.
