It would be cruel to parody people who care about the issue as such fanatics that they would try clean their behinds with one square of paper and their index finger, and think that that would save the world.

If there were such people and they were known to be psychologically fragile, I would agree with you.

But we don't know that there's anyone alive who is so far out there as to be committed to the notion that so drastically reducing the use of toilet paper or using "dining sleeves" will "save Our Mother" let alone that a significant subset of them are fragile enough to be damaged by being teased about it.

Perhaps you have generalized your attitude towards environmentalists to the point that you think they're all that daft but there are more than enough merely half-daft measures in their litany to effectively preclude such extremes.
