One of my favorite conservative stupidities involves the straw man that environmentalists are crazy prophets of doom and want us all to go back to the horse and buggy.
They then argue that if anything at all is done to deal with global warming it will lead to... THE COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF THE ENTIRE GLOBAL ECONOMY!! OOOOOHHHH

I'm pretty sure the reality is the other way around, though. That the global economy will collapse if the environment goes haywire. Particularly stuff that's dependent on it like agriculture, fishing, livestock, whatever biosphere-dependent economy there exists also. Probably others, maybe tourism too.
