11:24Now PlayingThe controversial Dakota Access Pipeline is having its day in court. Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The $3.7bn (£2.8bn) Dakota Access pipeline has prompted huge protests, notably in North Dakota where Native Americans have halted its construction.
It will run 1,168 miles through Iowa, Illinois, and North and South Dakotas.
US District Judge James Boasberg said on Wednesday he will make a decision on the issue by 9 September.
Outside the court in the US capital, environmental activists made their feelings clear.
They believe the transporting of up to 570,000 barrels of crude oil a day will imperil local waterways.
The company behind the pipeline, Energy Transport Partners, has said the project will boost local economies and is much safer than transporting oil by rail or road. But protesters disagree.”*
