Well, until this "right" realizes that we must do something to clean this up, it will remain a traditionally perceived theory (i.e. to certain areas of the public) that doesn't yet require the attention it deserves. When those in power find out that global warming and its effects are costing too much money and productivity, they will probably then do something. Until then, the debate is still open. We need more direct evidence that the public (i.e. those who believe the "right") can't refute.
We probably aren't that far off from a scientific slam dunk that would be embarrasing for anyone (yes, even the right) to disbelieve... like when the earth was revealed to be a bit more round than at once thought.
