While there is a right-left divide, I think it is actually a different divide than what you suggest, because even R&D solutions propopsed by the left are shunned by the right. The issue that doesn't come up nearly as much, but you'll hear if you talk to hardcore social conservatives is that this planet is for humans to do as we please. And I've been in discussions where they will quote specific bible verses. Their view is that the secular left doesn't believe in God and therefore thinks they need to fix a problem that doesn't exist.
