Especially, farmers were directly affected. They blame the wind for their agricultural and economic losses. As shown on Doc 7, “perhaps it is only because the dust is too dense and blinding” the farmers are focused on all the losses caused by the heavy winds. Before they left their land, for few years, they stayed and tried to re-establish
Farmers used the land too much without giving it a break. The plants had sucked out all the nutrients leaving nothing left. There was also no rain to keep it hydrated. The land was so bad that the topsoil was dust. On top of that there was high winds.
Analyzing Barbara J. Anello’s Long Son Pagoda American photographer, Barbara J. Anello, has traveled to Southeast Asia documenting the historical aspects of traditional art and culture. Anello’s collection, “Photographs of Southeast Asia and Morocco”, focuses on the domestic architecture of rural areas and cultures. Anello’s photograph Long Son Pagoda was taken in Na Trang, Vietnam on March 3, 2008.
Farmers did not need as much land as before so they left a majority of it unoccupied and bare. Since there was no grass to hold all the dirt down, when winds would pick up the loose dirt it would create dense dust clouds, that were also known as “black blizzards”. These storms ruined
The dust bowl was a very dangerous and tragic event due to the drought that Was going on the drought was a very big impact that caused the dust bowl. The drought
The drought killed the grass which made the soil lack the roots as an anchor, “So the winds easily picked up the loose topsoil and swirled it into dense dust clouds, called black blizzards”(“Dust Bowl”). This dust wasn't just destructive it was also deadly. The dust could kill if people inhaled enough of it. The dust was more deadly to infants and elderly people.
Many lives had been lost in this earthquake. In Document F, it explains how the plague brought the population of Rome from one million to 250,000, so it killed 75 percent of the people. This shows how the plague lowered the population drastically. This loss of population made it harder for Rome to find laborers and soldiers for war. The economy suffered and Rome was forced to acknowledge the loss of its power.
There are a vast amount of negative effects that are caused by the political machine in both history and today's modern society. One problem that is present throught both history and now is corruption. As shown with Boss Tweed in the 1800s and most politcs today, politicians can use the political machine for their own financial wants and needs. As an example, Boss Tweed used the political machine to create fake leases and vouchers to increase his wealth, which, as a result, financially drained New York City. Another problem is that political machines will often be negative for canidates not involved in the machines.
Big clouds of ashes were arising from the top of Mount. St. Helens. We tried to pack everything up. But every minute the clouds were getting closer.
The lungs that filled up with the dirt were the leading cause for pneumonia. The other primary epidemic was the migration of people. As the dust storms grew and became worse many people moved away. Most people in this area were farmers who then could not farm and make money, and they also did not want to die from the dust storms. The people who migrated became known as “okies”.
The dust in these storms often reduced your visibility to less than a mile which is 1.6 kilometers. The most destructive of these storms are often called “Black Blizzards”. “Black Blizzards” carried tons of soil all the way to the east coast. The thick filthy air of these dust storms damaged people’s lungs storms damaged people’s lungs and caused a illness known as “Dust Pneumonia”. Many Dust Bowl residents felt defeated by the dust storms and packed their belongings and left.
Health risks spanned from the horrendous environment. The origin of the apocalypse is unknown, but the father did hear concussions then identifies a “dull rose glow” (52) one morning that altered the country from then on. The land was uninhabited, the trees were all dead, and ash flew all over creating a grey murk (4). The ash that fluttered around was a major hindrance for the man and his son. They had to wear masks to cover their face so they would not inhale the murk, but the father still seemed to have a reoccurring respiratory problem.
The amount sand and dirt in the air interfered with human health and it damaged the air quality. When the dust storms would go by, the name or phrase would be “Black Blizzards” because of how dark it would become outside. Even though, the dust storm was in the states like Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado, sometimes dust piles were spotted in places like Washington D.C, and New York. However, the dust piles in New York and Washington D.C looked like snowdrifts. After the tremendous disaster, President Roosevelt made programs where farmers would have to learn how to conserve the soil and practicing how to sustain their farms.
One source tells me that her friend's house was on conflagration when they arrived home from the store they called 911 emedelity. The trees in the forests were scorched all wildlife was gone.6 farms were burned all of the crops are gone. Since it was really dry the rule was that you can't shoot any guns over there because
Even though both The Epic of Gilgamesh and Genesis are similar in that they all use the floods for a destruction, both the stories are different from each other in the distribution of roles within the gods and a way to warn the extermination from the gods. First, the similarity between The Epic of Gilgamesh and Genesis is the relevance with the flooding that used to exterminate the human. To prove the occurrence of the flood, chapter 5 of The Epic of Gilgamesh records, “For six days and six nights the winds blew, torrent and tempest and flood overwhelmed the world, tempest and flood raged together like warring hosts (line 62-63, p. 21)”. Also in Genesis, the text “The waters flooded the earth for a hundred
