The Dust Bowl forced many people in the affected regions, particularly in the Great Plains, to abandon their farms and seek better living conditions elsewhere, often migrating to California and other states in search of work and stability. This mass exodus, known as the "Okie" migration, was driven by severe drought, soil erosion, and economic hardship. Many families faced significant challenges, including poverty and discrimination in their new locales, as they struggled to rebuild their lives. Ultimately, the Dust Bowl had lasting impacts on agricultural practices and environmental policies in the United States.
The Dust Bowl was caused by an incredibly severe drought. The states most affected were Texas and Oklahoma.
The Dust Bowl was a severe environmental disaster that occurred in the 1930s in the Great Plains region of the United States. It was caused by a combination of unsustainable farming practices, severe drought, and strong winds that carried away the dry, loose topsoil, creating massive dust storms that damaged agriculture and livelihoods in the region.
People left the Great Plains during the Great Depression due to severe droughts and dust storms leading to crop failures and economic hardship. This period, known as the Dust Bowl, pushed many farmers to abandon their land in search of better opportunities elsewhere.
The Dust Bowl was not a specific color, but rather a period of severe dust storms that occurred in the 1930s in the Great Plains region of the United States. The dust storms were caused by a combination of drought, poor agricultural practices, and high winds, leading to widespread soil erosion and economic hardship.

The "Dust Bowel" is a misspelling of the "dust bowl", a period marked by severe dust storms caused by drought as well as common farming practices. The dust bowl had absolutely nothing to do with your bowels, and everything to do with people moving further west to escape conditions in the Great Plains, many settling in California, especially the Central Valley. These people gained the derogatory nickname of "okies". Source: Wikipedia's page on "dust bowl"
The great plains
The dust bowl was caused by both people and nature. People cleared away existing vegetation in order to make the land ready to farm, and then when there was a period of reduced rain, the land dried up and got very dusty.
