Well, probably not. They'd still find something to be mad about. The extreme element of enviro-concern is intrinsically simply unhappy. They will rail against something, whatever that is, probably always. What was once the worst thing evil men ever did to the world? Nuclear power. Now the same extreme fringe considers it the answer.
As with hummer haters in general, the extreme element of enviro-concern is emotionally driven and not rational. And the element of liberalism in America over the last 15-20 years (since i've been old enough to know politics existed) that is anti-american is born of personal discontent and cannot be quelled by changing america, as it has nothing to do with america, and everything to do with the people who have the feeling.
