The two pie charts illustrate the production of electricity in the US by source in 1970 and 1984. In general, coal was the most important source of electrical power in both years, although nuclear power grew in importance. In 1970, coal-powered stations were the main source of electricity, producing 46% of electricity, and this figure increased to 55% in 1984. The second most important source of power in 1970 was from natural gas, with almost 25%. However, by 1984, this had declined to just 12.3%. Hydroelectric power also declined over the same period, from 16% to less than 14%. In contrast, nuclear energy gained in importance. It rose from just 1.4% of production in 1970 to almost 14% in 1984, a ten-fold increase. In summary, more electricity was produced from coal and nuclear energy, while natural gas, hydroelectric power, and oil declined in importance. ...... * ...... * ...... * The two pie charts show four diseases in rich countries and the developing world.
