1) Volcanoes provide resources for energy extraction,also known as geothermal resources. This involves heat from the earth's crust is being converted to energy. The big advantages to this type of energy are that it is very clean and the resources are nearly inexhaustible.

2) It will bring more tourism, and more tourism jobs available; this will bring more money in the local economy through: airport tickets, tourism guides/companies, hotels, restaurants and local showbiz companies eg. circus, dance shows etc.

3) More people will come to see the beautiful landscape made by the pyroclastic (molten rocks) and mudflows, which harden overtime. They make great landscape for tourist to sightsee.

4) Though, the ash that comes and shadows over the crops and villages and destroys them, when mudflows hit the crops and farms (and not ash); eventually it becomes a better growth soil for the plants and farmland.
