On a forested hillslope, the tree roots help hold the soil in place. When the trees are removed, the roots rot away and the soli loses support, becoming less stable.
Sometimes persons do not place themselves in such locations. However some do, others that don't , usually are affected as a result of some tectonic activity or eventual slope instability that results in landslides . Eg earthquakes prone or slopes affected by deforestation.
The Lithosphere. +++ But not "in" - "on" instead. On the surfaces of hills and mountains.
Landslides are a mass of moving rocks, debris and soil. Landslides can occur in any area, although some areas are more prone to landslides (for example: California). A landslide can occur when the force of gravity overcomes the force of friction that holds a sloped mass in place. A landslide could be triggered by the movement created by an earthquake, or simply from saturation by rainfall or other moisture sources.
For landslides, minimize the water above them. That's the right place to drain. Plant trees on a potential slip site, and do not build on or below ancient slips.

Deforestation occurs because people want money and the wood market is a big money maker but you have to put roads in place and much more.
there will be more landslides as trees will not be there to hold land in place. flooding as trees won't be there to soak up the water, and more co2 because trees get rid of it.
earthquakes are most likely to occur on the rim of tectonic plates
landslides can destroy animals habitat and therefore they won't have a place to live.
There was some in the first place.
