In 1967 carbon dioxide emissions in the UK was the largest, with about 10.8 metric tonnes per person. In Sweden, Italy and Portugal, the emissions stood at 8.8,4.2 and 1.7 metric tonnes respectively. It is clear from the line graph that over the 40-year period, the emissions of carbon dioxide in the UK fell sharply to 9 metric tonnes while those in Sweden saw a small increase from 1967 to 1977, peaking at 10.2 metric tonnes. During the next 30-year period, the amounts decreased significantly to just below 6. By contrast, carbon dioxide emissions in Italy showed an upward trend, overtaking those of Sweden in 1990 at 7 metric tonnes. By 2007, it had reached just under 8 metric tonnes. Similarly, the emissions in Portugal kept growing to 5.5 metric tonne in 2007, at the same amounts with those in Sweden. Overall, the graph shows that the carbon dioxide emissions declined in the UK and Sweden whereas grew in Italy and Portugal over the 40-year period. C9P101 U.S. Energy consumption Examiner’s Writing The graph shows energy consumption in the US from 1980 to 2012, and projected consumption to 2030. Petrol and oil are the dominant fuel sources throughout this period, with 35 quadrillion (35q) units used in 1980，rising to 42q in 2012. Despite some initial fluctuation, from 1995 there was a steady increase. This is expected to continue, reaching 47q in 2030. Consumption of energy derived from natural gas and coal is similar over the period. From 20q and 15q respectively in 1980, gas showed an initial fall and coal a gradual increase, with the two fuels equal betwe
