I think this line's mostly filler.

Once upon a time, the Republican Party was a leader on environmental issues. In fact, it was the environmental leader. If you came of age between the inauguration of Ronald Reagan in 1981 and the inauguration of George W. Bush in 2001, you probably think that statement is nuts. When I speak to college audiences, in fact, I find that almost all of them think that a Republican is supposed to be anti-environmental, and that if you care about protecting the environment you must be a Democrat. And that's a shame. It reflects an indifference to the historical record, and more important, poses a danger to environmental progress.

Environmentalists who remain Republicans reflect an indifference to current reality.
