The problem with pipelines isn't in the building of them, it is the leaks. Will just mention two facts, in 2011 natural pipelines leaked over 69 Billion cubic feet of natural gas into the air. That is enough to heat most of Maine for a year. In 2013 just one of the many pipelines in North Dakota leaked 865,200 gallons of crude oil gotten from fracking. Like I said it isn't the building of pipelines that hurt our environment, it is the leaks. And what do we get for this pipeline, cheaper gas, no, this will all be shipped overseas. So we may pay the price and get no benefits. Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
