Check out the physical list here: http://list25.com/25-astonishing-dakota-access-pipeline-facts-you-might-want-to-know/ The Dakota Access Pipeline (also known as the Bakken Pipeline) is a 1,172-mile-long (1,886 km) underground crude oil pipeline project in the United States planned by Dakota Access, LLC, a subsidiary of the Dallas corporation Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. The pipeline would run from the Northwestern North Dakota Bakken formation and Three Forks hydrofracturing sites starting in Stanley, North Dakota and travel in a southeastward direction through South Dakota and Iowa to end at the oil tank farm near Patoka, Illinois. Worth $3.7 billion, the Dakota Access Pipeline project is due for delivery on January 1, 2017. The diameter of the pipeline is 30 in (76 cm), which is wide enough to transport up to 570,000 barrels of crude oil every day. The company (Dakota Access, LLC) estimated the project will create up to 40 permanent jobs and 8,200-12,000 temporary jobs. Since the very beginning, the project has been controversial regarding its necessity and potential harm to the environment. There have been numerous protests against the project in several US states. The project has also been opposed by many Native Americans, particularly Sioux tribes who say the pipeline threatens their environmental and economic well-being, and would destroy sites of great historic, religious, and cultural significance. Protests at the pipeline construction sites in North Dakota that began in the spring of 2016 were so massive they actually became the largest gathering of Native Americans in the past hundred years. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe says the pipeline could cause millions of peoples’ water supply to be contaminated if there are any disruptions or leaks in the pipeline. CEO Kelcy Warren of Energy Transfer Partners recently said, “I'm 100 percent sure that the pipeline will be approved by a Trump administration.” In June, Warren donated $100,000 to the Trump Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee for Trump's campaign. Environmental activists say the pipeline would contribute man-made climate change by building up the country’s oil infrastructure. They insist that fossil fuels need to be kept in the ground to protect the world from the worst effects of climate change. And more...

GIRTH?? That's your focus? Thousands of ppl tough it out in a blizzard.. psycho cops drenching them with water.. But your all about the size of the pipe. Says alot about u tubs..
-
How is the diameter of the pipe more relevant than the many acts of violence against the citizens at the behest of a corporation? What a pos this turned out to be.
-
This is definitely NOT a worthwhile source of info.. What a waste.. Unsub

not only is it for money ; but O they love to step on the necks of the indigenous peoples just because that is the way its been for so long! does my heart good to see someone standing up and saying ; NO More! look back in history and you will see the land is treaty land that was taken illegally, then won back in court, but never given back! same story, different day
-
funny police want to arrest these people but wont arrest the dumb asses destroying there own country

The honest fact around the multiple go fund me accounts is that the total over 11 million dollars.
the state "bill" is around 17 million and said to increase as.many.of those arrested cannot afford their own lawyers -
I am sure it takes a lot of work to make this list but I dont really understand the "climate change" element as the pipeline would actually reduce gas emissions by reducing the amount of truck and trains that carry this crude
-
Fuck american white guilt when it comes to native people.
-
I have heard there were more than 300 meetings between Native Americans and the route planners for the pipeline and they failed to mention their "sacred grounds" there. I also recall native Americans not believing in private property yet here they are with their newly found "sacred grounds"
-
Frack all that corruption yo....
-
It's been approved by Obama but you are blaming Trump? Well I guess it's better than blaming Bush lol.
-
I live in North Dakota, and I can tell you first hand that 99% of protesters are all a bunch of liberal dumbasses. Climate change is also bullshit, our country is currently in a "Siberian express".
