The graph below shows US consumers' average annual expenditures on cell phone and
residential phone services between 2001 and 2010.

Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make
comparisons where relevant.

You should write at least 150 words.

This graph demonstrates the yearly average expenses of cell phone for the US consumers and
the residential phone services between 2001 and 2010.

Overall, the cell phone expenditures were progressively growing from the year 2001 till 2010,
while the residential phone services costs were declining in the same mentioned period.

It is noticeable that tracing of cell phone expenditures illustrates that the curve is steadily
increasing with average 200$ in 2001 to approximately 790$ in 2010. However, the curve shows
some fluctuations in 2002 and 2007.

On the other hand, the expenses for residential phone services were dropping from 700$ in
2001to around 490$ in 2010. Similar to cell expenses, the curve expressed a mild indentation in
the year 2007.

In conclusion, this analysis for the above graph reflects incremental interest of US consumers in
using cell phone in comparison to the residential phone throughout a period of ten years.

Nowadays, pollution of the aqueous spaces; rivers, lacks and seas has become a hot issue for
those caring to preserve the environment.

The main reason for pollution of water spaces is contamination by waste and craft exhaust.
Many researches have detected that many rivers and lacks are polluted with domestic and
industrial wastes which find its way to these aqueous spaces at the end of the manufacture
processes. Moreover, exhaust of both commercial and touristic ships have its destination into
rivers and seas. Another important reason, is that the modern sewage system designed to have
its estuary in sea or rivers which was an additional factor contributing to their contamination.
Needless to say that the growing trend of building cities besides big lacks and rivers, has
harmfully impacted the cleanness of the aqueous spaces.

Consequently, this directly led to diminution of the marine life and the animal livestock with
prevalence of diseases in people living in the coastal areas who depend on these water sources
for personal use and agriculture. A vivid example is rising incidence of renal and eye disease in
people living in these areas proved by many medical researches. In addition, the exponential
drop in the marine life has markedly impacted the income of many countries which rely on
fishes and other marine animals as main source of their food.

To conclude, pollution of sea, rivers and lacks deserves great effort of environmentalists as it is
considered a major threat to both human and animal life. Governments are required to harness
and employ their resources to help organizations and associations to protect environment and
preserve a healthy life for both human and animals.
