And yet, the Greens were okay with keeping him in power. Why? Qwinn, we are of one mind on this. Early on, the environmental movement was about the environment. In the 70's and 80's, it was first infiltrated and then completely taken over by the anticorporate Left. It is now only peripherally concerned with environmental issues.
Spend a few minutes listening to a Green Party candidate or spokesman. Notice the steady diatribe against corporations and 'the Rich'. You can listen to entire speeches where the environment is not mentioned at all.

And it's really funny when you see socialists and Greens gather at the same event.
First the socialist grabs the megaphone:
"Down with the capitalist corporate burgeousis and their rape of the sweat and labor of the proletariat!"
Then the Green grabs the megaphone
"Down with the capitalist corporate polluters and their rape of the habitat of the gray-speckled wood owl!"
