In the twenty-first episode of 5 Minute Disasters, we explore the Dust Bowl, a devastating environmental catastrophe that swept through the Great Plains of the United States during the 1930s. In just five minutes, we examine how poor agricultural practices, combined with severe drought, turned once-fertile farmland into barren wasteland, displacing millions of people. The episode looks at the human suffering caused by massive dust storms, known as “black blizzards,” and the long-term impact on farming practices and environmental policy. Join us as we uncover the story of resilience amidst one of America’s greatest environmental crises.
