#Landslide as a #hazard is usually categorised under natural disasters but human construction activities can also trigger landslides, especially if they involve excavation, grading, altering the natural slope of the land, removing vegetation, changing drainage patterns, adding weight to slopes with structures. All these can increase the risk of instability and trigger landslides. In all #constructionprojects in areas prone to landslides, geophysical survays need to be performed and based on the outcome the risk of triggering landslide during construction and later during the use of land needs to be addressed in the #riskassessments. This video shows how a landslide can actually cascade to a #tsunami.

Why would anybody think setting off a blast in an area like that would be OK, obviously, no vision of the big picture?

That didn’t go as planned.

As a man that enjoys hedonistic pleasure and after 14 years of retirement I can confirm it's the best job I've ever had and that I'm also the best Boss I've ever had.
