That's all true and it's good to put the statistic into perspective, but even with that context it refutes the comment they replied to.

Tell them that none of the scientists are suggesting they’re going to die from climate change, that’s coming from laymen repeating stuff with their own flair and farming engagement from them on tiktok.

This is straight up false.
