essay body
paragraph 1
topic sentence
the negative effects of the Dakota Access Pipeline are few, though they are hurtful for the environment.
the acknowledgment
as well as negative effects there are also good effects of this pipeline. such as how much oil they will be able to transfer, and how much money it will be making.
the dispute
although the crude oil being transferred this way is safest and will make money. they haven't proven that it is safest and don't have any proof to show.
the concrete detail
there has been reports of leaks from as little as 20 gallons to 4,998 gallons, from DAPL to ETCOPL.
the analysis and evaluation
despite all of their safety precautions spills and leaks still do happen.
the conclusive sentence
DAPL and ETCOPL do have negative effects on the environment and for people who live near by. although there are a few positive effects, the pipelines are still very dangerous.
paragraph 2
topic sentence
environment and historical statues are being violated.
the acknowledgement
yes, the economy is also important, but shutting down the pipeline wouldn't cause major disruption to the economy.
the dispute
if we shut down the pipeline or never even started it, it wouldn't cause major negative effects on the economy
the concrete detail
DAPL claimed that "the court found that shutting down the pipeline would not cause major economic disruption".
the analysis and evaluation
other things are going on in the economy, such as electric cars being used instead of combustion cars.
the conclusive sentence
shutting down DAPL wouldn't be a major economic disruption.
paragraph 3
topic sentence
DAPL would cross personal land and wildlife habitat.
the acknowledgement
building the pipeline would help with the economy, but the economy wouldn't crash if it were to be shut down.
the dispute
shutting down the pipeline would save peoples personal land and wildlife habitat.
the concrete detail
Mike Faith Jr. chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe stated "a federal judge declared the DAPL permits to be illegal, and ordered the corps to take a fresh look at the risks of an oil spill and the impacts of the tribe and its treaty rights. that is not what the army corps did."
the analysis and evaluation
instead, we got a cynical and one sided document designed to paper over mistakes, not address the tribes legitimate concerns.
the conclusive sentence
the the corps just put more of an effort into addressing the tribes concerns, it would have been better.
conclusion
the modified focus statement
the discussion of pipelines are very important today, there are many being built that have caused environmental hazards.
the modified thesis statement
