 Groundwater – it can destabilize the slope putting pressure on it greatly.
 Volcanoes erupting – this can cause the slope to become unstable.

True Colors
By : Justin Timberlake, Anna Kendrick
You with the sad eyes Shining through
Don't be discouraged, oh I realize I see your true colors
It's hard to take courage And that's why I love you
In a world full of people So don't be afraid to let them show
You can lose sight of it all Your true colors
The darkness inside you True colors are beautiful
Can make you feel so small I see your true colors
Show me a smile then Shining through (true colors)
Don't be unhappy I see your true colors
Can't remember when And that's why I love you
I last saw you laughing So don't be afraid to let them show
This world makes you crazy Your true colors
And you've taken all you can bear True colors are beautiful (they're beautiful)

'Cause I will always be there Oh oh oh oh oh…
