get to your scene in editor, choose material tab, next resource tab, and change local_to_scene to true

What @Inces said is right; another good habit it took me way too long to get into is to always "Make Subresources Unique" (choose this from the "Object Properties" (screwdriver/ wrench icon in the top right of the inspector)) whenever I copy params or open a duplicated scene. This will make sure changes you make to the copied or duplicated resource don't also change the original.
