Don't forget the hole in the ozone layer. That was before the Internet, so they were able to put that one over on us without a murmur. In retrospect, we can look back and see that much of what they said about the hole in the ozone layer was nonsense.
The ozone hole damage was a temporary real thing that quickly cleared up when specific chlorine radicals, were no longer emitted. Ozone forms in the upper atmosphere when solar radiation hits oxygen. O2 becomes O3, which blocks intense UV radiation. The ozone hole issue is nothing like what the climate alarmists scream about today.
