The can lead to mass wasting

Explanation:

Weathering and erosion can be a bad thing because they can lead or trigger mass wasting.

Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.
Erosion is the washing away of weathered materials.
Mass-wasting is the movement of materials down-slope under gravity.

Both weathering and erosion can lead to serious problems like mass-wasting because they are earth moving processes.

Weathering can lead to the formation of sinkholes in an area where rocks are decomposed chemically.

Erosion can wash away top fertile layer of soil and makes them bare. This can lead to drought.
