Why is Global Warming considered scientifically proven?
Science believes that no theory is 100% and is always looking for a better answer. Than why is Global Warming is held in religious regards by some, to the point that Oregon's governor wants his state's climatologist removed from office for stating that global temperature changes are naturally occuring.
You could also go with global warming supporters removing the Medieval Warming Period from reports, including the UN panel which listed it in its 1996 report, but not in subsequent 2001 and 2006 reports.
There is also the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research's 2004 report that the sun has been at its warmest in the past 60 years and that this may be affecting temperatures.
You could quote Al Gore in an interview, "Nobody is interested in solutions if they don't think there's a problem. Given that starting point, I believe it is appropriate to have an over-representation of factual presentations on how dangerous it is."
Why has science finally stopped looking?
Science has not stopped looking at this. Thousands of scientists are working on it right now.
What has happened is that the vast majority of scientists agree on three things.
It's real, it's caused by man, and it is likely to be very harmful, flooding coasts and damaging agriculture.

There is much hard data which shows the present warming is far more rapid than anything that happened in the past.
People have analyzed hard data concerning solar variability. That contributes 0.12 watts per meter squared and man contributes 2.6 watts per meter squared. So scientists conclude it's not solar variability.

Al Gore isn't driving the science. The science is, and there is hard data to support the scientific consensus. Which is why people like these accept global warming. You wouldn't expect them to be fooled by bad science.
"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."
James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.
"The overwhelming majority of atmospheric scientists around the world and our own National Academy of Sciences are in essential agreement on the facts of global warming and the significant contribution of human activity to that trend."
Russell E. Train, former environmental official under Presidents Nixon and Ford
"We simply must do everything we can in our power to slow down global warming before it is too late. The science is clear. The global warming debate is over."
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Republican, Governor, California
"Our nation has both an obligation and self-interest in facing head-on the serious environmental, economic and national security threat posed by global warming."
John McCain, Republican, Senator, Arizona
"These technologies will help us become better stewards of the environment - and they will help us to confront the serious challenge of global climate change."
President George Bush
Look at the science, not the politics. It's out there.
For example, the guy below says it's impossible to push up CO2 because the ocean sucks it up. Here's the data, proving that's wrong.

That's from Hawaii. There's a little bit of ocean around there too.
