to be frank, conservatives only changed their tune on this when it was so painfully obvious that they had to. creative backtracking to still be against any action while looking less like a neanderthal != delightful open-mindedness. and many, like my dad, still call the entire thing a hoax.

I guess you don't know that in the 70's it wasn't global warming that was a serious issue but global cooling? Funny how that works.

Veritassium debunks this claim on climate change, along with a dozen others, in less than 7 minutes in an informative and entertaining way. It's a great video, you should at least watch it.

In short, during the 70s, there were some papers on global cooling. But even then, there was still 6 times more papers on global warming. Science overall has been looking in the correct direction for a long time now. The narrative isn't changing.
