No, I don't think it is.
The scale is so small that even if every electron application was suddenly replaced by an equivalent super lightweight one, I claim it would make no difference for the climate.
Other things can make a difference in aggregate, like eat less meat, using better mode of transportations, ...
But I don't think the CPU cycles wasted by electron makes any difference, even in aggregate.
