An Interview With Ken Burns About 'The Dust Bowl,' Climate Change, Sandy, and History | Movies | OutsideOnline.com
We know that man has altered the temperature of the planet through our carbon-dioxide emissions and the trapping of greenhouse gases within our atmosphere, and that these have caused weather extremes, both cold and hot, sort of magnitude events, that we’re dealing with today. While there is a huge political debate, unfortunately, there’s no scientific debate.Ken Burns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burns earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in film studies and design[2] in 1975.

Burns is a longtime supporter of the Democratic Party, with almost $40,000 in political donations.[10] In 2008, the Democratic National Committee chose Burns to produce the introductory video for Senator Edward Kennedy's August 2008 speech to the Democratic National Convention, a video described by Politico as a "Burns-crafted tribute casting him [Kennedy] as the modern Ulysses bringing his party home to port."[11][12] In August 2009, Kennedy died, and Burns produced a short eulogy video at his funeral. In endorsing Barack Obama for the U.S. presidency in December 2007, Burns compared Obama to Abraham Lincoln.[13] He said he had planned to be a regular contributor to Countdown with Keith Olbermann on Current TV.[14]
