Wasn't he the author of THE POPULATION BOMB - or one of the authors?

I wonder how Holdren met him?

Yes. Ehrlich was a founder of the ZPG movement, and made an infamous bet with Julian Simon on the scarcity of resources. Simon won the bet.

According to this article, Holdren helped Ehrlich with data with which to support his bet. Holdren evidently was associated with the Club of Rome, another of the Mathusian groups that promote scary scenarios in the name of science.

Oh, I’m sure he was just a professor who happened to live nearby.

My guess; either at a flag or draft card burning.
