NODAPL stands for "No Dakota Access Pipeline," a movement that opposes the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline in the United States. The pipeline, which transports crude oil from North Dakota to Illinois, faced significant backlash due to concerns about environmental risks, potential water contamination, and violation of Indigenous rights, particularly from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The protest gained national and international attention, highlighting issues of indigenous sovereignty and environmental justice.
