Well.... the prevailing idea from some is that because Climate Change cannot be completely, 100% proven at this time, then it must all be patently false and nothing more than the agenda of the other end of the political spectrum.
Removing the partisan blinders when examining the ideas presented in the science of Climate Change might cause some to agree that hedging our bets now, could be a very smart idea for future generations.
I liken it to the acid rain of the 80's.... no one believed it was true, bunch of tree-hugging liberals with crack-pot science.... No way we're going to spend a penny cleaning up our waste based on this BS.... and it was eventually proven to be true, after considerably more extensive damage to our eco-systems.
There are others here who will start the hue and cry about legislative interference with the markets...blah blah blah.... Some things a society does actually aren't going to be for the immediate gratification of the current generation, but need to be for the benefit of the next generation...
Unless we want to be the Onceler....
