>>1422680OK in theory, but the practicals tend to fall apart.
Many patch job solutions that feel good but struggle long term. Thermiting for example, you bust the gear and possibly harm workers but not really an actual solution. You essentially need to have a constant garrison of Eco Terrorists on hand to keep various interest from tearing the place up the moment you leave. This greatly limits the effectiveness and prevents ET's from being able to freely act(too many places with shit going on, not enough people to act against it due to the bulk of your numbers being on garrison duty) while ceding the initiative to the opposition.
Long term solutions are also hard and in one way or another tend to turn into money fights. The best (theoretical) solution I know of would be educating and empowering sympathetic locals that can keep raising hell when you are not there (legal challenges, political pressure, lobbying, unions and the occasional assassination). Most of that cost funding and has awkward consequences, Especially if you are successful and end up attracting the ire of the rich fucks in the habit of having the US gov do their dirty work.
>interfering in the "political destabilization for fun and profit" game the rich fucks have been playing for the last 60 years(a major part if not the root of the problem) could be very dangerous
