I guess we were already going into this path but i'm not sure it was something people did not knew back then already

They show abductees a wide variety of different doomsday scenarios for Earth, I've heard some say lava will cover the Earth, others say they saw massive floods covering the Earth, some say they see the Earth break apart, etc. They aren't really providing visions of the future, they are using fearmongering tactics to scare people into action. I don't really care if the Earth will implode tomorrow, the way to warn us isn't to abduct people and use fear as a motivator.

As far as i know the first two were a real thing? I remember reading about them and seeing pictures and wasn't there a small ice age like a few hundred years ago or so?
Never heard of the "Dust Bowl" and it seems weird, is that like a tournament on some bars or stuff like that?
What happened before that?

We should stop dropping 35,000 bombs every year on Muslims in the Middle East and start planting trees in this country!

In the 80s and 90s it was the "Greenhouse Effect" and the loss of the Ozone layer (and a hole), caused by CFCs and USA Nuclear testing.
Any tv adverts of the early 90s mentioning "Global Warming" because you turn your heater up 1 degree, is Not the same "Global Warming" they are talking about nowadays. It had a different meaning back then in the UK. It was actually More to do with saving energy/pollution etc, than any warming message. Typical tongue in cheek British humour.
As far as the Amazon burning...it is not.
What it is, is excessive clearing of native vegetation for agriculture etc, then Burning off the remaining dried vegetation lefft over from the clearing..........yes not smart, but not burning the "Amazon" away.
The Indonesians have been doing the same for years now, and polluting huge swathes of Middle Earth near the Equator.
Some cities in Asia are covered in smoke because of it. All for Palm plantations.
