Most NIMBY's would prefer something be built in some wilderness area than
near their populated domicile. In that respect, NIMBY's are anything BUT
environmentalists. 

MIMBY's don't care if a power plant is built. They just don't want to look
at it. "Environmentalists" would rather no power plants of any kind be built
anywhere at anytime. Power plants are enablers of modern
civilization...something that needs to be destroyed.
