Because people in power often happen to be boomers? You can replace "boomers" with literally any other common denominator and, while still stupid, probably anything would be more accurate - try "men" or "white people".

Maybe, but boomers willfully sacrificed the long-term survivability of this planet for short-term profit when confronted with climate change, triggered this political hellscape by electing Regan, and have lingered in power for like 50 years. So, Boomers have had an outsized impact.
