Question 4

Context: Renewable Energy Planning

A local council is conducting a consultation regarding a proposed onshore wind farm project near three rural settlements: Highfield, Lowwood, and Oakridge.

Figure 7a displays the results of a survey regarding local residents' opinions on the project.

Figure 7b: Bar chart template

A bar chart template showing public opinion on a proposed wind farm in three villages. The vertical y-axis is labeled 'Number of residents' and ranges from 0 to 60 in increments of 10. The horizontal x-axis shows three villages: Highfield, Lowwood, and Oakridge. For each village, there are spaces for two grouped bars: a shaded green bar representing 'In favour' and a diagonal-striped red bar representing 'Opposed'. Highfield's bars are already plotted (In favour = 15, Opposed = 45). The bars for Lowwood and Oakridge are blank templates awaiting completion.

Using the data in Figure 7a, complete the bar chart for the villages of Lowwood and Oakridge in Figure 7b.
