Convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Celsius numbers look cooler.

Not really. For one thing, global warming will run its course in a few centuries, and global cooling will ensue, greenhouse gases or no greenhouse gases. For another, "warmer temperature" is a relative term. The average global surface temperature has only risen a degree or two in the past century, so I think we're safe.
(sidenote- without carbon dioxide, plants would be unable to manufacture oxygen and we would all die. So it isn't that harmful of a substance.)

yes it is something to fear about, the temperature is change due to carbon dioxide covering the earth. carbon dixoide is the harmful chemical that comes out of power plants, cars, planes that are so harmful. this cover takes in the suns rays which will make it hotter. many species of animals are affected by this especially the animals living in tundra like enviroments. a major animal is the polar bear. as the huge pieces ice melts at an estamated 9% every ten years there it results in animals like the polar bear to not being able to hunt and gather food enough food. the polar bears try to swim to land to get more food but do not always make it. the temperature rise will also create stronger hurricanes. ways you can help are not using as much energy, buying energy star products, looking more ways you can help on the internet, buying organic food but if it comes from a very far away place, and buying cars that get more miles to the gallon. although people think it is good to buy an electric car it is not so you are helping get rid of this problem if you buy cars like the hybrid.

If we actually were starting global warming ,we should see high temperature records broke each month. And the records should be over 100 years old. There is no true high temperature record being broken. In fact I have Sean several cooled records being broken.

LOL..
Fear of human caused global warming ala Al Gore and his cronies, NO. 7/10 of one degree centigrade over the last hundred years is of no significance. Consider the pre-industrial warming period was substantially warmer, from my scientific history books the solar cycles are "factors" in warming and cooling trends on the planet. Humans have little impact compared to the fireball burning 93 million miles away from us.

Yes, I do. Regardless of the temperature scale used. Actually to be specific, I fear the consequences of global warming, not the warming itself.

It's scary, yeah. Especially since we're not doing anything about it - and cars aren't being banned and new effiecient cars aren't being made.
