I lean more towards ignorance than malice. The average Earth person (out of all 11 billion) probably doesn't have as solid of a scientific or historical background to form an educated opinion on what affect we are having on the ecosystem in the long term.

The reason being that they were flying to Germany the next day. Oh...and they came from Texas ;-)
