COMMENTS
Since lim(x->+infinity, zeta(x+i*y)) = 1 (uniformly in y), it follows that Re(zeta(x+i*y)) cannot be zero for arbitrarily large positive x. Hence x_0 exists.
van de Lune (1983) proved that x_0 > 1.192. Arias de Reyna, Brent, and van de Lune (2011) computed x_0 to 500 decimal places.
If Re(z) >= x_0, then Re(zeta(z)) > 0.
Additional references and links for the zeta function are in A002410.
