 The Dustbowl was located in the central United States and Canada from 1931 to The hardest hits were Kansas, Oklahoma, Northern Texas, and Eastern Colorado

 After the conditions of World War 1, it led Midwestern farmers experiment with new forms of mechanized farming. The farmers wanted to increase their profits by plowing and developing more land than ever before.  As wind began to blow against the parched landscape, uncovered patches of farmland simply blew away entirely.  The combination of strong winds, long droughts and high temperatures resulted in a flurry of ecological mayhem. The term “Dust Bowl”was named for the massive clouds of dust that blanketed large areas of the continental US.

 People were homeless, dirty, and without food or water. They needed to find a place where they could be safe. The dust bowl made the Great Depression last longer. It also made the harvest fail.  This was no help to local economics, which had to struggle with an influx of what were in essence meteorological refugees

 More than 7,000 people died from dust pneumonia and lung disease  To help survive, people put wet clothes over their faces to keep the dust out  People starved from not having any crops due to no rain
