I don't believe that we are headed for another dust bowl, and even if we are headed to another dust bowl then It won’t have anywhere near the effect as the first dust bowl had. During the first dust bowl most people lived in rural areas so the destruction of farms and the dust hit those areas really hard, but today in the modern times most people live in cities away from farm. The dust bowl started because of a year of intense drought and bad farming techniques that made the soil easier to be moved by the wind.
