By some definitions of best, maybe. By others, likely far more
popular, "best" would involved tracking down all the extremist
whackjob enivronmentalists and rendering their bodies down into
hydrocarbon fuel.

Are you seriously proposing mass murder as the best solution? Some
70+ years ago, a guy named Hitler implemented such a "solution". He
ended up killing himself, and causing a cstastrophy over almost a
whole continent.

Now,now, Hitler was implementing empirical policy and not a solution -

"At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilised state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla." -- Charles Darwin (1871) The Descent of Man

In case readers don't know or for those like yourself where English is a second language, an anthropomorphous ape was an empirical invention where black people look like apes hence the bridge between white skin academic trash and baboons.
