Its you dont want pipelines, then start the process of reducing oil consumption by stopping buying medicines, anything with chemicals, and all plastics.

Yet another matter where the public operates under a grossly false premise.
You left out people not liking pipelines because they believe we should be reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. There are plenty of good reasons for this, pick one--climate change, pollution in general, reliance on a system heavily influenced by people who do not share our values, such as OPEC and Russia
