7. Man can cause a Dust Bowl

This is an in-your-face documentary for those who still deny Mankind's role in the Dust Bowl. It was old news for many people like me whose parents grew up on Oklahoma farms in the 1930's. I guess we all thought that every kid had been taught the same lesson about being good stewards. However, more than 2,000 nuclear bomb tests and nearly 75 years of pollution later, some Climate Change deniers still exist and they will be running the Congressional Science Committee. Somehow, some way, maybe we can bring their offices to near-standstill with a constant deluge of emails and handwritten, stamped letters. They say they only answer to their district constituents, but their doomsday actions have made all Mankind their constituents. Wherever you live on this planet, make them do the right thing.
