A volcanic eruption can destroy a wide range of environments and structures, including homes, infrastructure, and agricultural land due to lava flows, ash fall, and pyroclastic flows. Ecosystems can be severely impacted as vegetation is buried or incinerated, and wildlife habitats are disrupted. Additionally, the eruption can lead to secondary effects like mudslides and lahars, further exacerbating destruction in surrounding areas.
