I would like to point out that there is over two million miles of oil and gas lines currently crisscrossing the country.
But this single thousand mile pipeline will destroy the world.

This is a 1 hour drive to a major river so yes this is what everyone was warning about. I expect it will take days to get to the river but this pipeline is practically new. How much poison will it spill in the life of the pipeline? Honestly if those making the profit are not out there cleaning up the mess themselves this kind of crap will just keep happening. Like a dog crapping in the house you feel like they should have their noses rubbed in it.

And how are these people any different than the people living next to the other two million miles of pipe around the country'?

People don't think one will destroy the world. People are frustrated businesses get to express eminent domain to buy part of their land at market value, making it hard for them to sell and move once no one wants to live next to a pipeline.
Do these people get royalties? Nope. So they get screwed... And if a leak does happen, water can be tainted along with soil, or if it's natural gas and an anomaly happened with an explosion, a one mile~ blast radius can kill them.

It's just greed and most of this stuff is done on purpose.
