People are using social media as their voices to let people know what’s going on in this certain situation. For example, Facebook is a way people can find what’s going on with the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. It’s a way that people can be get an inside view of what’s going on with this situation. These are some of the hashtags I found when researching the North Dakota Pipeline Access Pipeline #NoDAPL, #dakotaaccesspipeline, #RezpectOurWater, #WaterIsLife,  #StandWithStandingRock, and #HonorTheTreaties that helps spared the words of people who support this protest. These methods of active because it spread the word of what’s going with this situation and it raises awareness to people in the country and in the world on what happen to these people in more of a peaceful way.
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.The role the media has is to emphasize on this thing that are not environmental justice.
