Landslide is a natural disaster because it can kill people especially the hikers when they're caught by the sliding rocks and people who is near the mountain because the sliding rocks can fall over and kill them. Landslides can destroy buildings on that mountain and nearby. The worst landslide happened in 1972 which the nearby building roofs were removed. Landslides are usually caused by very heavy rain which causes rocks to erode since rainwater is slightly acidic due to carbon dioxide trap. Landslides are getting more frequent every year because of heavier rainfall. Rain is also getting heavier because of global warming. So the answer is yes, landslide is a natural disaster.
