ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Dave Foreman, a self-proclaimed eco-warrior who was a prominent member of the radical environmentalism movement and a co-founder of Earth First!, has died. He was 74.

The New Mexico-based Rewilding Institute, which Foreman founded as a think tank to develop long-term land conservation plans, said on its website that he died peacefully at his home in Albuquerque on Monday.

A cause of death wasn’t immediately released, but friends of Foreman said he had battled a lung illness for several months.

“There will never be another like him. One of the greatest conservationists ever,” the institute said. “He is sorely missed by so many as a dear friend, leader, and mentor.”

Geez. The planet outlived him. That’s too bad. I’m pretty sure it will still be here when all of us are gone.

"… he had battled a lung illness for several months."

So much for the "weed is safe" theory.

LMFAO! 😂

Neurotic people like this should only be met with ridicule and vigilance. They’re also dangerous. Any ‘leader’ with even a basic understanding on how to influence people could easily convince any of those weak-minded nuts to strap a bomb on and kill a bunch of people for the cause.

Good gosh. Those people are deranged. I use that one all the time to illustrate the lunacy of the Left.

Was he actually part of that organization, or were you using it to illustrate who they are?
