        concerns that it will worsen climate change....Public opposition
        to pumping water and chemicals into the ground to extract gas
        from shale − the technique known as fracking − is growing even
        in the countries whose governments are most in
        favour....Although only four countries – France, Bulgaria,
        Germany and Scotland – have an outright fracking ban at the
        moment, many districts in countries that allow fracking in some
        areas ban it in others....This is true in the US and in Canada,
        where potential wells will not be developed because local
        authorities have refused permission...The carrot for governments
        generally has been the promise from the fossil fuel companies of
        large quantities of cheaply-extracted gas that will last for
        decades and cut their reliance on imports.</font><br>

        students take photos of beautiful things such as sunsets or
