    Volcanoes form when molten rock escapes from the Earth's surface, and most are located on the ring of fire around the Pacific Ocean. The Philippines has abundant geothermal energy from volcanoes that can be harnessed as electricity because the country receives heavy rainfall. Volcanoes affect the environment through air pollution from smoke and destruction of habitats, and they are classified as active if currently erupting, dormant if not erupting for at least 10,000 years, or extinct.
