Again. I'll ask in a shorter form.

Isn't this stat missing a critical number? How many people every year are ALIVE because of the things that cause global warming?

I mean, it would be helpful to know this. Is the number of people who owe their lives to such things smaller or greater than 7 million worldwide?

I suspect the answer would be surprising to many.

There are too many confounding variables in play. The OP's source's estimate is essentially invalid as would the estimate of those you mention. There's really no way to know to either way. However, I support your position.
