Mass movement is the movement in which Earth's surface changes.
The term that best describes this process is "mass wasting," which refers to the movement of material downslope due to gravity. This can include processes such as landslides, creep, and rockfalls.
Examples of mass movements include protests, civil rights movements, labor strikes, and social justice movements. These movements involve a large number of people coming together to create change and advocate for a common cause.
Mass movements caused by gravity are known as gravity-driven movements and include landslides, rockfalls, and debris flows. Glaciers cause mass movements through glacial erosion, where ice movement transports sediment downhill, leading to processes like rockslides and moraine collapses.
Rapid mass movements occur suddenly and can travel at high speeds due to factors like steep slopes or heavy rainfall, leading to landslides, rockfalls, or avalanches. Slow mass movements, such as soil creep or solifluction, involve gradual downslope movement of material over an extended period, often influenced by factors like gravity and water infiltration. While rapid mass movements pose immediate risks and can cause significant damage, slow mass movements are generally more subtle but can still contribute to landscape changes over time.
Factors that do not commonly trigger mass movements include gentle rainfall, stable slope conditions, and absence of erosion or human activities.

Not very much. The best solution we have is to cause these movements to happen ourselves under controlled conditions.
