Using the AMR code ENZO I am simulating the formation of individual stars into massive star clusters within turbulent Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs). I will address how initial conditions affect the star formation and how energy and momentum from a massive star cluster can disrupt a GMC - even before supernovae. I will talk about the simulations from the first stages of building realistic turbulent GMCs, to accurate star formation and, finally, feedbacks. These simulations aim to build a better understanding of how stars affect the GMCs they are born within, helping to answer the questions of how long GMCs live and why only a small fraction of GMC gas makes it in to stars.
