You refer to the killing of scientists, while the parent comment refers to the killing of activists. Please do try to avoid the bending of words, intentional or otherwise.

Ironic considering that the original claim was:
>Many climate scientists sounding the alarm get attacked and silenced (and activists get killed!)
But the source you provide only mentions "environmental and land defense activists".

I made an error in my original comment. Please check out the reply.
I vaguely recall a climate scientist disappearing under odd circumstances but I can't recall where. Maybe this was a scientist and activist in Latin America.

My apologies, I must have gotten things confused with the climate scientist who self-immolated in protest.
Still, climate activists are routinely targeted: https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-63064471

Meanwhile on YouTube you can find conspiracy theory videos how everyone, including scientists, activists organized by some shadowy cabal, is conspiring against you oh and the government is in on it too. Meanwhile oil companies, etc have provably lead to the deaths of 1700 people and the only motivation they need is profit.
