Sky News host Alan Jones says governments shouldn't be bullied by "intellectual lightweights" running Australia's corporate entities, making climate change demands without understanding the science.
"Not when you have a trillion dollars of debt and certainly not when China is building 220 coal-fired power stations, India, 77, Indonesia, 35, Vietnam, 21, Turkey, 5 and the Philippines, 21," he said.
ANZ bank vowed to implement the most ambitious net-zero emissions action of the big four banks, adopting climate change as a condition of lending.
Mr Jones said this move would increase pressure on farmers, construction firms, and a range of companies to establish low-carbon transmission plans by next year.
Chief Executive, Shayne Elliot, warned last month ANZ would get rid of any customer with a dismissive approach to the climate challenge, stating customers would be quizzed about their public commitment to a net-zero economy.
"Well I am telling you, the Shayne Elliots of this world are confirming that not only are they poor businessmen, but they also couldn't conduct a sensible discussion on carbon dioxide if you gave them a start," he said.
Woolworths last month became the first corporate retailer to pledge to cut carbon dioxide emissions from its retail and warehouse network by 63 per cent by 2030 and a net-zero carbon dioxide emissions target by 2050.
"Remember, this so-called scourge, carbon dioxide, is 0.04 per cent of the atmosphere. That is four-hundredths of one per cent," Mr Jones said.
"Of the Earth's total production of carbon dioxide, human beings produce three per cent, and of that three per cent, Australian industry - transport and farms - produce 1.3 per cent.
"Come on, do they think we are dumb? What the hell is Woolworths on about? But they are not on their own.
"Bunnings, the nation's leading hardware store chain has vowed to source 100 per cent of its power from renewables by 2025.
"We have the coal and you have fools - it is the only way to describe them - like Shayne Elliot at the ANZ and people running Woolworths and Bunnings, bullying Australians into not using coal because of carbon dioxide emissions, which are 0.04 per cent of the atmosphere."
Former Director at the Environmental Assessment Institute in Denmark, Bjorg Lomborg, said he believed in climate change but highlighted the need to challenge the "evermore rampant talk about catastrophic climate change".
Mr Lomborg argued climate rhetoric had "become unpinned by science".
On the Paris Agreement, Lomborg repeated what he said many times, that it would be the most costly treaty in history; between US $1 trillion and US $2 trillion a year.
Not surprisingly, research showed that it would increase poverty.
"On a global scale… humanity will be much better off, including in Africa, in a scenario of high fossil fuel use, than it would be even if we succeeded in achieving a benign low carbon dioxide world," Mr Lomborg said.
"Doom and gloom distort our world view and can lead to bad policy. The future is bright and we need smart decisions to keep it so."
