Landslide Emoji

Travel

A dark, angled representation of a rocky slope collapsing. It shows jagged earth chunks and boulders tumbling downward, signaling a sudden shift in terrain.

Usage Context

Used to describe environmental disasters, sudden geological events, or metaphorical situations where everything is spiraling out of control. It often appears in news updates about heavy rain or tremors and acts as a more specific warning than the ⚠ warning sign or 🌋 volcano.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2020 as part of Emoji 13.0, the landslide was introduced to provide a clearer way to document natural disasters and weather-related road hazards, filling a gap for mapping and crisis communication apps.
