Global warming deniers should be referred to as 'pro death.'
Climatologist Bjorn Lomborg found that more people will not die from cold exposure due to warming than will die from heat exposure due to warming. So if we are going to play the hyperbole game, its arguably pro death to be opposed to global warming too.
Bjorn Lomborg is not a climatologist as I suspect you well know.
Lomborg is a statistician, which would potentially make him qualified to comment on this, but he is a paid-off mouthpicece, as I suspect you also well know.
From RationalWiki: Lomborg set up a think tank called the Copenhagen Consensus Project (a misnomer, to be sure), which generally pushes wishful thinking about geo-engineering. Geo-engineering is largely seen as a last-ditch solution due to the fact that pumping the atmosphere full of massive amounts of sulfur as Lomborg favors may have loads of unintended consequences and doesn't deal with a number of problems created by increased carbon dioxide levels such as ocean acidification (the project tends to omit these considerations in its reports).
The think tank was set to close in July of 2012 after the newly elected Thorning-Schmidt administration cut its government funding.[15] However, luckily for Lomborg he had quietly set up a think tank called the Copenhagen Consensus Center in America that was doing well enough to pay himself $775,000 yearly[16] and that since it began, the CCC had attracted $4.3 million from "anonymous" donors with climate denier links.[17] (If you can't guess who and what these groups are at this point, you're not paying attention.)
He is to the debate what Dr. Oz is to medicine, a rodeo clown who frames his information to give audiences what they want (a quick- fix miracle cure) and cries censorship when confronted by actual scientists.

In regards to the absurd specific claim:
Increased deaths to heatwaves - 5.74% increase to heatwaves compared to 1.59% to cold snaps (Medina-Ramon 2007)
Increased heat stress in humans and other mammals (Sherwood 2010)
Spread in mosquite-borne diseases such as Malaria and Dengue Fever (Epstein 1998)
Increase in occurrence of allergic symptoms due to rise in allergenic pollen (Rogers 2006)

So:
1.Not even close
2.Referring to global warming deniers as pro-death is not hyperbole at all, but is a statement of fact.
It's nice to know you think Atlas Climate Change Champion Harry is an idiot like Bjorn Lomborg.
Keep it up with your lightweight "in the ears out the mouth" cognitive style.
