Clearing Everest's Trash - 360 | National Geographic

This is a landfill in the Sagarmatha National Park, home to the world's tallest peak, Mount Everest. Members of the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee, or SPCC, collect and sort trash all the way up to Everest base camp, situated in the Himalayas. Everest is more than 29,000 feet above sea level at its peak. It has been an elite climbing destination for decades, and hundreds of climbers from all over the world visit each year to attempt to summit the peak.

Tourism and trekking in the valleys below Everest have grown significantly in the last 30 years, now reaching over 35,000 visitors per year. The increased tourism has led to an increase in trash and plastics, and landfills now dot the National Park. Ang Dorjee Sherpa is the chairman of the SPCC and has lived and worked in Sagarmatha for most of his life.

SPCC members carry the trash to designated sites, where it is eventually burned or buried. They've enjoyed the trails appearing clean, but the trash remains in landfills and waste pits around the corner from tourist hotspots. At the moment, they have few alternatives. Many SPCC employees are contracted by the Nepalese government to work as mountain guides and icefall doctors, some of the most dangerous tasks on Everest.

They install aluminum ladders over chasms and cracks in the ice along the Everest climbing route, crucial to set climbers up for success to summit the peak. The SPCC hopes to grow the waste management system, but for now, they want to encourage tourists and trekkers to gather and remove trash from the park.

While Nepal is moving to curb the number of climbers, other reforms will be needed to keep the world's most coveted mountainous peak in Sagarmatha, a national park, clear of trash.
