Best Answer

Hawai'i was formed from volcanoes. The shape of the islands (volcanic mountains) affects the weather. Volcanic activity causes eartquakes, eruptions on the Big Island cause it to continue to grow, cause fires, close roads. Gasses from the volcanoes can cause vog (volcanic smog) and volcanoes have produced fertile soil in Hawai'i.

Volcanoes in Hawaii have shaped the islands' geology and landscapes over millions of years, creating new land through lava flows. However, eruptions can also be devastating, destroying property and infrastructure. Additionally, volcanic gases and ash can impact air quality, affecting the health of people living nearby.
