Sure it feels like a bit of NIMBYism, but to put him on the same level as Leo, Greta, etc. is way off base IMO.

He had the platform and reach to raise awareness about an issue that concerned him and was able to help enact some change.

It is tough to balance everyone's interests on this issue I think.
He's looking out for ranchers grazing leases? He's looking out for land owners? Why would he look down his nose and decide landowners here need his help because he can play a guitar? Really? Should I watch out for his land and reclaim it back to what it was? There are many local folk down here that have a much better grasp on reality than flakes similar to Corb.
He is the one who put himself on the same level as Leo and Greta.
Corb Lund is just another grandstander trying to use a touchy subject for personal gain.
