We prove the existence of global attractors for the following semilinear degenerate parabolic equation on $\mathbb R^N$: $$ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} - \text{div}(\sigma (x)\nabla u) + \lambda u+ f(x,u) = g(x),$$ under a new condition concerning the variable nonnegative diffusivity $\sigma(\cdot)$ and for an arbitrary polynomial growth order of the nonlinearity $f$. To overcome some difficulties caused by the lack of compactness of the embeddings, these results are proved by combining the tail estimates method and the asymptotic a priori estimate method.
