Catching up with Ken Burns' "The Dust Bowl," Part I tonight after watching Part II this past week. Scale unimaginable, and I've done some reading on it in past. And, of course, partly man-made, due to over-plowing and not heeding "science" on climate predictions. Perhaps if more Americans saw images like the one below--kids going off to school in the Dust Bowl--we might get moving on combating climate change. Many other kids died from the "dust pneumonia." And the image above just one of hundreds of storms. One darkened skies in NYC, D.C. and Boston.
