People are using hashtags such as #dakotaaccesspipeline, #dapl, and #nodapl to create awareness. When people use these hashtags they are fighting and spreading the issue. This method of action is very effective because social media is consistently being used and people across the world can know about this environmental justice issue. Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.
