What do rock falls and mud flows have in common? Why are a landslide and a slump similar to each other? How can we prevent mass wasting processes from occurring?
Mass Wasting is an interesting unit because it shows very clearly that humans cannot ever control their environment completely. Our construction, road-building and lifestyles must take into account the influence of gravity and weathering on our surrounding environment. Building the Sea to Sky Highway will trigger landslides and rockfall - the question is how we will minimize the damage.
Today we finished up your amazing! presentations, and did a practice review test. There is no homework, however we are beginning caves next day - and there will be an assignment to hand in before Christmas break.
p.s. caves is one of my favourite unit
