Description
1) The Pacific Northwest hosts a series of volcanoes that have been active in the past 10,000 years. Summarize the major hazards and provide information on the regional
extent affected by the different hazards of each major volcano. (20).
2) Different volcanoes are within sight of the three urban centres in the Pacific Northwest (Vancouver, Seattle, Portland). Assess and rank the volcanic hazard risks for each centre. And then rank the cities from highest to lowest risk from volcanic hazards. (12)
Mass Wasting: Meager Creek Landslide
3) In August 2010 a massive landslide occurred on Mt. Meager. Summarize this event.
Why is Mt. Meager so susceptible for these massive landslides? (6)
Sample Solution
someone else is making the choice for them. Battin claims that no act is fully rational with coercion (131).Ã This demonstrates that suicide by force could not be rational because if you are being forced with no other options then there is no way that cou Volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest ld fully be your decision. Battin also reinforces this in which one of her criteria is that it should meet the interests of that individual (Williams, cited in Battin 1995, 146). Also, both of these points fail the criteria of ability to reason, in which they can move from prem Volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest ises to conclusion (Battin 133). If the individual is being forced or influenced by others, then they cannot fig Volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest ure out the premises or conclusion by themselves. If suicide is forced or not their decision, then it does not meet their interests but the interests of others, demonstrating that suicide in that regards could not be rational.
