Deny env permissions silently (without throwing)

Hi. An 
npm
 module I'm using tries to read, or rather check for an existence of an 
env
 variable. The problem is it throws due to not having permission to access 
env
.

I'd rather not give any 
env
 permissions to any of my scripts.

I think the offending npm module can do with having env variables undefined, it's just that it throws just trying to see if the variables are there. Can I somehow make Deno silently return empty/null without throwing an error?

(if it's any importance, the offending module is 
npm:deepl-node
 , which uses 
npm:axios
, which tries to see if there is something in 
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS
 and is then unable to handle the access denied exception)
