On May 4th, 2007, Greensburg, Kansas was hit by an EF 5 tornado, the most powerful and devastating storm possible; perhaps one of the worst tornadoes in American history (destroying 95% of the city). This twister packed winds of over 200-miles-per-hour and destroyed nearly every inch of Greensburg, including churches, schools, homes, all municipal buildings, and the hospital. In thirty minutes, the town of Greensburg was in ruins. Greensburg decided to rebuild the most energy efficient, "green" town in America. (58 minutes, 2008)
