From the OP link:

Some environmentalists are uneasy with Clinton’s approach so far to climate change. They would like to have seen her work as secretary of State to scuttle the Keystone project. Her relationships with donors and advisors connected to large fossil fuel companies make them anxious. And her support during her 2008 presidential run for “clean coal” as a viable, green alternative has not been forgotten.

At a town hall event in New Hampshire this month, an activist with 350.org pushed her to commit to banning fossil fuel extraction on public land. Clinton declined to do so, saying such energy production is necessary to keep the economy moving until there are enough alternatives in place.
