For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: What should folks that believe in manmade global warming be called?

The results of yesterday's poll indicate most NBers feel those that don't believe in anthropogenic global warming should be called "climate realists." Now, it's time to come up with a name for those that believe man is responsible for climate change.

However, before starting a new poll, I'd like some ideas. The purpose here is not to be inflammatory, or insulting -- although those looking to poke some fun should feel free to.

Instead, I'm looking for serious considerations to include in a poll. At this point, the options are: Climate Pessimist, Warm-monger, Warmaholic, Climate Alarmist, Warminator (courtesy of Anthony Watts), and Hot Head. Any other suggestions?
