Clinical psychologist and author Dr Jordan Peterson says he does not think governments do "any analysis at all" into the climate policies they implement.
"Let's just say for a moment that the climate alarmists are correct, even though they're not – especially not in their economic modelling," he told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
Dr Peterson said if one wanted to be distinguished as a "good leader in a time of crisis", they cannot be terrified enough by the future that they turn into a tyrant using "compulsion and force" to get others to comply.
"There has been careful analysis done by people like Marion Tupy and Bjorn Lomborg showing that we can chart a pathway forward through whatever climate trouble we're going to encounter," he said.
"Without panicking, without using compulsion and force, without destroying the farmers and the energy community and without impoverishing poor people."
Dr Peterson said it was the "utter lack of forethought" preventing this from being the path taken.
