Stage 3: Highlight the information of particular interest or relevance, focusing on a new aspect of the information. Stage 4: Comment on the information by emphasising the significance of the information to the essay or report more generally, or on the limitations of the information. The following sentences are taken from a report on Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data. The pie chart shows the emissions by countries. Identify the corresponding stages of the sentences describing the chart and re-order them to make the description logical.Source: Boden, T.A., Marland, G., and Andres, R.J. (2015). National CO2 Emissions from Fossil-Fuel Burning, Cement Manufacture, and Gas Flaring: 1751-2011, Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, U.S. Department of Energy, doi 10.3334/CDIAC/00001_V2015 ❶ These data include CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion, as well as cement manufacturing and gas flaring. ❷ Together, these sources represent a large proportion of total global CO2 emissions. ❸ In areas such as the United States and Europe, changes in land use associated with human activities have the net effect of absorbing CO2, partially offsetting the emissions from deforestation in other regions. ❹ In 2011, the top carbon dioxide (CO2) emitters were China, the United States, the European Union, India, the Russian Federation, Japan, and Canada. ❺ However, changes in land use can be important: estimates indicate that net global greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, forestry, and other land use were over 8 billion metric tons of CO2 equivalent, or about 24% of total global greenhouse gas emissions. ❻ Emissions and sinks related to changes in land use are not included in these estimates.
