so even though each year suffered a landslide over the weekend, jessica holmes of newcastle university in the u. k. told me how these last glides are becoming more common and more dangerous. landslide triggers come because anything, so rainfall is one such long flight trigger. and we think that about 80 percent of natural disasters are caused by weather related hazards. and that includes landside, triggered by rainfall like those recently seen and come around and italy this week . so the fact that we've got this very intense rainfall that occurred actually potentially a very long dry summer is something that we're likely to see more and more is climate change progresses. so the dryness of the summer is likely to have caused weathering of top soils, which reduces the strength of the soils. and therefore there's a greater likelihood of one side errands when that rainfall does. com. so it's possible that that's the sort of thing that we see now, and we are likely to see more of unfortunately as climate change progresses. well, i think the main thing that we need to look towards is monitor
