Nop. There is huge amount of vested interested in denying climate change. All the big industries including oil, gas, coal have regularly sponsored "studies" that would twist facts and have spent enormous in lobbying to push back on climate change theories. Many other industries such as automotive has interest in curbing regulations that says reduce pollution by x% by y year. Climate change affects almost all of the manufacturing in one way or another.
Thing is that once you accept climate change as man made event, the immediate consequence is asking all the businesses to spend extra on minimizing impact. That never goes well with businesses. My theory is that republicans initially started denying climate change due to lobbying and then they had to take that as religion because science doesn't support it.
