Man's impact on the environment has been an issue on Mount Everest
ever since adventurers began making serious efforts to reach the
summit.
Now, environmental activists are making entreaties to have the
Sagarmatha National Park in the Himalayas put on the World Heritage
danger list, because of the threat to it posed by global warming.
But there is a more mundane issue to be addressed by those who care
for this region - the increasing number of visitors and the rubbish
they leave behind.
The once pristine snowscape became strewn with human waste, and
earned an unflattering reputation for being the "world's highest
garbage site".
Considering this problem,
Eco-friendly Nepal, a non profit making social
organization is going to operate following environmental programs in
fixed date yearly. |
