I remember in order the following deceptions starting in elementry school:

1. The emerging ice age.
2. The population bomb.
3. Energy crises that said I wouldn’t be driving a petroleum fueled car.
4. Ozone Depletion (what the hell happened to that crises?)
5. Y2K
6. Globull Warming.

I'll add to that list with "acid rain". Whatever happened to the threat that toxic water from the sky was going to eat leaves off of trees, peel paint from cars and generally erode the landscape of the USA?????

As for the Rapture, I'm ready (and waiting... sometimes even praying for it to come soon, like, before the next round of bills are due....)

Cap and trade, scrubbers, catayltic converters made a big dent
