Stand with the Standing Rock Sioux!
Every day the pipeline is in operation risks a disastrous toxic oil spill poisoning the Missouri River, the Standing Rock Sioux’s main water source. The impact is not limited to the Standing Rock Sioux, as the Missouri River provides water to millions more people downstream. Yet construction of the pipeline was exempted from the requirements of the Clean Water Act.
Ignoring pending legal actions, treaty law, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, construction has already disrupted sacred burial sites as builders of the pipeline continue without regard.
A fully operational pipeline is projected to bring 570,000 more barrels of oil to market, resulting in the release of over 100 million metric tons of CO2 -- a greenhouse gas responsible for accelerating climate change -- each year. This is equal to the emissions of nearly 30 coal plants, or over 21 million cars, annually. Further, hydraulic fracking of the North Dakota oil fields has been responsible for a dangerous increase in atmospheric ethane, another greenhouse gas.
To protect sacred land and water supplies, and to honor sovereign territory rights, we must tell the Army Corps of Engineers to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline now.
