People just like to get mad at those who raise a stink or tell them they need to do things differently (or better), that's really all your comment is saying.
Obviously they don't exhert as much influence because they're not in control but when you look at the "Bad apples" on an individual basis, from person to person, it's the same idea.

Eco-terrorists are no better then corrupt O&G execs.

Also as an aside, Enviromentalists who have no grasp on economics are the most annoying people on the entire planet. If they all disappeared it would be the happiest day of my life. I would organize a petition to turn the day into an international holiday of celebration and joy. These types of people without a doubt out number the similarly uninformed in the O&G industry.
