I recall all the “sky falling” threats when environmental laws were first becoming “draconian” in the 70s. In retrospect it was laughable. In 1968 the smog was so bad in S California that the visibility was under 1/2 mile. Flying into L.A. looked like descending into a bowl of dirty water. Thankfully the EPA shoved it down the throats of their detractors. And I wonder if anyone has an old photograph of the HOLLYWOOD sign from the late 60s. I doubt if the sign was visible from the freeway. Smog was bad. It was real. And the ENVIRONMENTALISTS should be thanked for forcing Detroit to clean up the air.
