i first heard about it driving to school on npr and thought, oh, this would be a good project. and then while doing a current event for our government class, there were articles in "the los angeles times," "the new york times," and we read those, and the moment where we all decided this was going to be our topic is when there was an article on fracking in our local newspaper and it said how fracking was happening two miles from our house. so there's this national problem and up no it's a local problem and from then on we aural very passionate about the subject and its seemed obvious that's what our top yuck should be. >> you're from long beach, california. >> yes you you go to long beach polytechnic high school. so this is a school assignment. >> i'm taking a u.s. government class and our teacher assigned the project as a mandatory thing, and to be hon, it's the best school project i have ever done. i've learned -- never learned so much from a project than i have from this one request. >> what what did you learn? >> the technical side offed didding. never touched an editing pro
