Shocked with the 'world roof' full of garbage

Awnings, cans, plastic bags . are listed above - the "roof of the world", causing environmental experts to be shocked.

Although they were unconcerned, they still had to admit that this mountain is now the highest landfill in the world as more and more people climb it and throw away what they no longer use.

Only since the beginning of the year, at least 600 people have climbed Everest and left behind there as fluorescent tents, climbing equipment, empty gas cylinders, plastic bags and even human feces, making the mountain 8,848m high becoming "disgusting eyes".

"It's disgusting" , Pemba Dorje - who 18 times climbed Everest, told AFP. "The mountain is suffering tons of waste."

Meanwhile, the melting glaciers due to global warming also exposed the pile of rubbish that had accumulated on Everest for 65 years.

Five years ago, Nepal stipulated that each climbing group had to pay $ 4,000 deposit, and would be refunded if each person brought down the mountain at least 8kg of garbage.

The Tibetan management board also asked the climbers to bring 8kg of garbage, otherwise they would be fined 100 USD / kg.

However, according to Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee, in 2017, Nepalese climbers brought down nearly 25 tons of garbage and 15 tons of human waste.
