This is why people are opposed to the Dakota Access Pipeline. It can potentially pollute water for millions of Americans.

The Dakota Access fracked oil pipeline will transport some of the dirtiest fuel on the planet. It must be stopped. #NoDAPL

Supporters of DAPL say there are legitimate benefits. Pipelines are fundamentally safer and more efficient than other methods of transporting oil. DAPL would also lessen the United States' reliance on foreign oil.

Pipelines are safer than the current methods used to transport oil. A lot of oil is currently being transported through cities and towns by truck and train. Pipelines move the oil away from people. It's fundamentally safer.
A safer alternative: Oil transport by pipeline vs. rail, barge, trucks. Get the facts: https://t.co/ve64ycHcrH pic.twitter.com/7z0h4PiS0g
