Yes. There are active volcanoes that does not affect any one to this date. There has been others that has wiped out an entire civilization such as the case of the pompeian civilization completely devastated by a volcano.

Why are some volcanoes more active than others?

some volcanoes are more active than others because some volcanoes lie on plate boundaries that move frequently which adds more pressure to the magma chamber where all of the lava is stored. Other volcanoes are formed but do not gain much pressure because they have been formed slowly or have errupted many times before and do not gain any more pressure. Some volcanoes are temperarily dormant which means they are not active. Some volcanoes have been dormant for hundreds of years because there is not enough pressure for the volcano to errupt. Hot countries may have an affect or volcanoes that started off very close to the epi-center of the earth, that has lava flowing up to the volcanoes frequently from there, which may set them off more. I hope this has answered your question.

All volcanoes whether active or inactive are dangerous do you think this is true?

With some exceptions, volcanoes are generally not dangerous to people. Your chance of being killed by a volcano is 1 in 80000 over your lifetime, which is far less than your chance of being killed in say a motor vehicle accident (1 in 67). There are also two classifications for inactive volcano's. Volcanoes which have not erupted for a significant amount of time are known as dormant volcanoes. Volcanoes which have not erupted in human history are known as extinct volcanoes. Extinct volcanoes are never expected to erupt again, and are therefore not dangerous unless they have been misclassified. So no, I do not think that all volcanoes whether active or inactive are dangerous. The only dangerous volcanoes are dormant volcanoes that explode suddenly with little or no warning.


Which is more dangerous volcanoes or earthquakes?

It depends on the specific circumstances, but generally speaking, earthquakes tend to cause more widespread destruction and loss of life due to their ability to trigger tsunamis and widespread structural damage. Volcanoes can be equally dangerous, especially if they erupt explosively, but their effects are usually more localized to areas near the volcano.
