12 tons of feces accumulated on Everest: tourists continue to shit

Today, 02:59

Mount Everest, on the border of Nepal and China, suffers from the consequences of mass tourism. Every year, hundreds of climbers storm it, and many of them leave behind tents, cylinders, packaging, clothes. But the main problem is shit.

In recent years, tens of tons of garbage and several tons of feces have been removed from Everest, but the problem remains unresolved - removing waste is expensive, difficult and dangerous. It is estimated that about 12,000 kg of human excrement has already accumulated on the slopes.
