Option B, The population has increased and so had demand for energy resources

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect – The decrease in population causes the decreases in the  number of consumers of any energy resource  and  thus the demand for energy resource also decreases.  Therefore the "process of fracking" also reduce.

Option B is correct – With the increase in population, the number of heads consuming the energy also increases which ultimately leads to rise in demand for energy  and the "process of fracking"

Option C is incorrect  – If the population is rising, the resource consumption will increase and there is no reason to believe  that rising population will cause decrease in resource consumption.

Option D is incorrect – If both population and demand for energy has fallen down then the “process of fracking” shall also fall  down.

Option B is correct
