Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "David Foreman" in English language version.
The deep ecologist Dave Foreman was a co-founder of the radical wilderness collective Earth First! before the group forced him and his increasingly anti-immigration ideology out. By the late 90s, the anti-immigration issue reached a fever pitch within the US environmental movement. The Sierra Club had grown exponentially in the preceding decades, and "population control" had been part of its core platform. A nearly decade-long power struggle ensued for control over America's pre-eminent conservation group, as new members attempted to move away from the overpopulation argument, while longtime Sierrans and those in Tanton's circle pushed the group to maintain immigration control as a core tenet.
