Answer:

Landslides are unavoidable. But we can predict when a landslide is about to happen, and they can prepare when a landslide is about to happen.

Landslides are a recurring threat to human life and livelihood in most parts of the world, particularly in areas where population and economic growth have been rapid. Hazards are primarily mitigated through preventative measures, such as restricting or even removing people from areas with a history of landslides, restricting certain types of land use where slope stability is in question, and installing early warning systems based on monitoring of ground conditions such as strain in rocks and soils, slope displacement, and groundwater levels.
