The charts below show the proportion of expenditure by students, on average, at one university, in 2000 and 2010. Summaries the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The charts illustrate seven different areas where university students spent money in the years 2000 and 2010. By far the most important area where students spent money in both years was on Food and drink (home), and this remained exactly the same percentage at approximately 30% of total expenditure. However, there were significant changes across the decade in the proportion of spending in all other areas.

The diagram below shows the recycling process of plastic. Summaries the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The process diagram illustrates the various processes / stages involved in the recycling of plastic. Overall, it can be seen that not all plastic products are recycled. While some reach landfills where they accumulate polluting the soil, others reach recycling centres. People buy plastic products like bottles, bags and other items from shops and then use them. After using these products for a while, they discard them. While plastic bags and rubbish reach landfills where they do not get recycled and thus pose a threat to the environment, plastic bottles are usually recycled. They are collected and transported to sorting houses where they get separated into various types. These sorted bottles are then transported to recycling centers where they get recycled and used to produce various plastic products. These products again reach supermarkets from where consumers buy them, use them and discard them and the cycle repeats all over again. Some plastic will again make it to the landfills whereas the remaining gets recycled.
