Deep down for them, (much as it is with groups like PETA) it’s about bullying. The cause is the means to the end to justify bullying others. By giving it an altruistic excuse, they can do anything without feeling guilty or thinking they should have a consequence for it.

They’ll examine the effects of the eruption,
ignore that the cause was natural,
and blame those effects on the actions of humans.
