Scientists in the 70s wanted to pore MORE CO2 out? Can you cite that, please.

In the 70s, the US was also the leader in the environmental movement with the strongest regulations in the world that led to cleaning up the air, land and water.....despite the claim by industrial polluters that the environment has always "fixed" itself naturally in the past and would continue to do so w/o regulations..and who further claimed that environmental regulations would lead to economic disaster.
