Just because activists have concerns / don't want it etc, why is that automatically a bad thing? Are the activists completely wrong with their concerns?

I'm pro-green, but I understand the need, value, place and reasons for oil - we'll never get rid of it and too many things depend on it - I get that. My point is that this venture seems like a big risk to Americans, with very little gain for them. They (politicians, mostly republicans I think, some democrats), are going crazy trying to get this approved, but... for what? Not for jobs, not for economic benefit that I can see... what is missing here?
