What are negative and positive effect of volcano?
This is good for increasing renewable energy use. Ash ejected by the volcano acts as a good fertiliser for soils. Volcanoes attract many tourists, who enjoy the dramatic scenery that they produce. Rising magma brings valuable minerals to the surface, creating mining opportunities.
What are two positive and two negative effects of volcanoes?
Positive: 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. Negative: Deadly and devastating Lahars are made when… ash and mud from an eruption mixes with rain or melting snow making fast moving mud flows.

What are positive aspects of volcanoes?
Geothermal energy is where heat from within the Earth is used to generate electricity. Geothermal energy can be generated in areas where magma lies close to the surface.
