A volcanic eruption is a forceful explosion of volcanic material such as steam, lava, rocks and toxic gases and gases which are dangerous to the environment into the air.

Volcanic eruptions are often severely damaging to the environment local to the volcano and can cause loss of human life in local settlements.

Volcanic eruptions are often caused by movement in the earth's tectonic plates that allows magma to rise to the surface of the earths's crust.
