Energy - sustainability - fossil fuels - oil and gas.
Fracking is a method of accessing and extracting natural gas and oil.
Fracking is an abbreviation for hydraulic fracturing.
It involves injecting fluid under high pressure into deep rock formations to create - and hold open - cracks through which deposits of gas and oil can be extracted.
Opponents of fracking highlight its environmental risks including methane leakage and increased risk of earthquakes.
