The correct answer is: "pumping fluid deep underground to force natural gas out of shale rock".

Fracking or hydraulic fracturing is a technique which consists on pumping pressurized liquid in order to fracture the rock. Afterwards, natural gas, oil or brine would flow towards the surface.

The severe environmental impacts of this tecnique have led to the emergence of a social movement of protest against it.

"excavating Earth’s surface to reach veins of clean coal" would be the best option because this is done fairly close to the top of the Earth's surface. It's a controversial and dangerous practice.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

There was a senate; however, Augustus maintained power over all bodies of government.

Explanation:

After the death of his uncle Julius Caesar, Caesar Augustus became the ruler of the Roman empire. He was the adopted son of Julius Caesar who made him his heir after his death.

Augustus brought an autocratic form of government after he became the ruler. He put all major power on himself, overlooking major decision making upon himself.
