The graph shows the percentages of four different types of fuels in use between the years 1800 and 2000. NR5y
The provided line graph illustrates how various fuels, namely wood, coal, oil and gas were used in proportions from1800 to 2000. Overall, it is clear that the consumption of wood decreased substantially, while gas and oil usage increased steadily compared to coal over the period mentioned. It is evident from the graph that in 1800, there were merely two conventional fuels. The first one was wood which was declined significantly in the percentages from 100 in 1800 to under 10 in 1950. There was a rapid rise of nearly 70 in coal consumption, hitting the highest point in 1900. But then a noticeable decrease was seen in coal use at around 40, whereas usage of wood remained steady until it reached to the lowest point. Turning to the other sectors that became popular over the second half of the period, it is obvious that the amount of oil and gas which was used underwent a considerable growth at around 30 and 20 in 1950 respectively. After that reaching to almost a third, consumption of oil leveled out compared to gas. The figures for gas saw an upward trend of just above 30 in the final year.
