Droughts- Natural Disasters Quest Chain

I don’t think that we are at risk of another Dust Bowl, because even though we are having a period of drought in California it isn’t as bad as the ones during the Dust Bowl. I think that something similar to the Dust Bowl could occur again in the future though maybe not soon. We have hopefully learned how to farm differently from that experience. People could prevent things like the Dust Bowl from happening by stopping global warming, like using natural gasses up, and have everyone start using these improved farming techniques. We have started using and introducing techniques that are not as harmful to the environment and benefit us more too. However, we will probably have another Dust Bowl situation because of global warming or something similar to what caused the Dust Bowl.
