What caused the Dust Bowl and how did a mix of human error and severe weather create one of the worst environmental disasters in American history?
In this video, we break down the simple environmental science, ecology, and history behind the 1930s Dust Bowl.
Discover how decades of aggressive plowing destroyed millions of acres of deep-rooted native prairie grasses, removing nature's natural topsoil anchor.
Learn how a decade-long drought dried the unanchored soil into powder, and how fierce prairie winds swept millions of tons of dirt into terrifying "black blizzards," reshaping American agriculture and conservation forever.
