Victor Manuel Velasco Herrera is a theoretical physicist and researcher at the Institute of Geophysics of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He disagrees with predictions about future climate change, arguing that proponents ignore the most important factor, which he submits is solar activity. In the summer of 2008, he also predicted the world would soon enter a little ice age.
In climate change, Velasco claims that the models and forecasts of the U.N. IPCC "are incorrect because they only are based on mathematical models and presented results at scenarios that do not include, for example, solar activity."[1]
