K K
1. The dramatic scenery created by volcanic eruptions attracts tourists.
This brings income to an area.
2. It can cause loss of lives and properties.
3. Human and natural landscapes can be destroyed and changed forever.
4. People also became creative by making earthenware out of the ashfall
from the Pinatubo Volcano eruption.
5. The high level of heat and activity inside the Earth, close to a volcano,
can provide opportunities for generating geothermal energy
6. Lava flows and lahars can destroy settlements and clear areas of
woodland or agriculture.
7. As the lava flows or pyroclastic materials are ejected in the air, they can
destroy anything in their way.
8. The lava and ash deposited during an eruption breaks down to provide
valuable nutrients for the soil. This creates very fertile soil which is good
for agriculture.
9. If the ash and mud from a volcanic eruption mix with rainwater or
melting snow, fast moving mudflows are created. These flows are called
lahars.
10. People can develop breathing problems, throat irritation and other
respiratory issues when ash falls after a volcanic eruption.
