It'll happen - it's bound to. Progress tends to happen that way, if you look at any of the previously divisive issues.
The problem (and please don't misread this) is that when it's about eg. gay marriage or drug enforcement, it's "only" some people's lives being ruined. That's temporary and localized. When it's about climate change, it's about the long term fate of the entire planet. There's no "rolling back the tape".
It's already too late now. And the US just elected somebody who is ready to undo the past 8 years of its own progress on climate change.
The good news is, Greenland's pretty big and mostly uninhabited.
