Very close guess... actually most people agree the biggest intentional ecological / environmental destruction was saddams draining of the Ma'dan, a 3500 square *MILE* marshlands.

Quote :

"Bordered by the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, the Mesopotamian Marshlands once covered 3,500 square miles in southern Iraq and Iran - interconnected marshes, wetlands, and lakes that supported endangered birds, abundant fish stocks and an ancient wetlands-dependent indigenous population known as the "Ma'dan."

Regarded by biblical scholars as a possible site of the ancient "Eden," the marshland's historical roots run deep. The Sumerian civilization, authors of the first alphabet and early epics, are thought to have inhabited the marshes around 3,500 BC, and in recent years, nearly 400,000 Ma'dan, or marsh Arabs, called the area home.

But following the end of the Gulf War in 1991, Saddam Hussein ordered the widespread drainage and diversion of water entering the wetlands from the north, leading to a near 90 percent reduction in total acreage, according to a 2001 United Nations Environment Programme report. "

The worst disaster I ever heard of was a buddy of mine, on a hunt'n trip.
He was eating a bunch of stuff like trail mix 'an sardines, washing it down with prune juice.
OMG!!! I heard the spray kilt a three square mile patch of woodland... causing major mud slides 'an gully-washers, resulting in farms 'an ranches being wiped out down in the valley, causing the giant meat/grain shortage of '88, which, as we ALL remember, wiped out a full 1/3 of third world populations due to starvation.

I flew over the marshes in Iraq. Most of it turned into desert, but you could still see where productive cropland once was. Saddam was punishing the marsh arabs because they are shite.
