The once beautiful Mt. Everest is suffering each year due to the accumulating waste caused by climbers.
Not only is Mt. Everest covered top to bottom waste with human’s fece, oxygen tanks, and more waste. It is also covered with corpses of climbers being left to litter the mountain frightening new climbers each year. Climbers come to see the beautiful view at the top, not to see about 50 ton of waste. Human waste left by climbers on Mount Everest is causing pollution and could spread diseases
“The two standard routes, the Northeast Ridge and the Southeast RIdge, are not only dangerously crowded but also disgusting polluted, with garbage leaking out of the glaciers and pyramids of human excrement befouling the high camps.” - Mark Jenkins, Maxed
