There is little hope that one day we could speak about the willful blindspots on both sides of such debates. Global warming is a major crisis with a hard tradeoff between two deeply negative outcomes: poverty now vs. climate disaster in the medium future.

Society will polarize, each side never mentioning one half of the tradeoff and blaming the other side for all the negative impact of the other half of the tradeoff.
