Bar graph

The bar chart compares the figures for waste collection in four categories at a recycling center between 2011 and 2015. Overall, it is noticeable that waste collected for all areas increased, in particular for paper waste which was generally highest throughout the period. In contrast, garden and tin waste were less commonly recycled.

There was a consistent decrease for the amount of paper waste (from 57 tons to 40 tons) from 2011 to 2013, however, the data increased dramatically for the rest of the period and ended at 70 tons. Similarly, in 2011, the figure for glass waste was 48 tons and witnessed a negligible decrease (reaching 41 tons) in 2012. The figure then recovered to its initial number, overtaking the statistic for paper waste in 2013, and fluctuated around 50 tons for the rest of the time surveyed
