The two charts show the main sources of energy in the USA in 1980 and 1990.
The two pie charts compare the production of the major sources of energy in the USA between 1980 and 1990. Overall what stands out from the both charts are that there was an significant increase in the use of coal, whereas the use of oil decreased markedly over the time period mentioned in the question. Looking at the details, although non renewable energy oil represented just over the two fifths of total energy sources, there was considerable decline to 33% constituting only an one third in 1990. However, in regards to another important natural gas that witnessed a slight decrease between 26% and 25% from 1980 to 1990. Even though initially coal stood at 22%, over the next decade, there was a marked rise in the demand of it to 27%. Likewise coal, nuclear power energy followed the same trend which meant that the application of this type of energy rose doubled from 5% to 10% in a 10 year period. While in case of hydroelectric power source, negligible increase in it' s use was noticed between 5% and 6 % as opposed to gas which was as similar as in the beginning of the period.
