Also, dietary changes are difficult to convince people of in general. Just look at the prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, etc.

I definitely think this is the main problem. It's a struggle to get people to change their diet even when it's directly having a negative affect on their own health. Trying to convince people to change their diet over more abstract reasons is going to be even more difficult.
