IMG_2485_boom.jpg A test drilling site for shale gas near Banks on the outskirts of Southport, Lancashire, UK. The gas is contained within layers of shale rock and is released by a controversial process known as Fracking, where liquids are pumped into the rock under high pressure to shatter the rock and release the gas. Recently the process was halted when it was thought it was responsible for two small earthquakes in the area.
In the USA the process is highly controvercial, as it leads to contamination of groundwater and polluted drinking water. Its exploitation is also obviously very bad from a climate change perspective. In the foreground is a farmer spraying his cabbage crop with pesticide.

IMG_5356_crop spraying.jpg China is in the middle of the worst drought in 50 years. Precipitation totals have fallen significantly across most of China's northern provinces. 60% of China's 669 major cities face water shortages, of these 110 face serious water shortages. One of the main consequences of this is that many areas that previously produced much of China's food are seeing crop yields falling, leading to a loss of long term food security. Computer simulation shows that as Climate change accelerates, it will lead to food shortages across large parts of china. This shot shows women, wearing no protection, spraying pesticide onto wheat crops near Hangang in northern China
