Well, it is probably fair to assume that they would rather have not released the picture (I rather they hadn't, for 
one), so "forced" is probably not an inaccurate term.  Now I hope they quickly repaint those trucks some other color.

But environmentalists wouldn't be prone to exaggeration or
self-glorification...


Probably more accurate to broaden that statement.  "Political activists" as a whole are always enthusiastic about 
touting any 'success' they have, and I don't think that is unique to any given extreme.  The political activist group 
FOX has gone so far as to create their own 24-hour cable channel for the purpose, as an example...
