☆ Everest climbers will have to take their poop away with them, as Nepal tries to address growing waste problem
  + stars: | 2024-03-25 | by ( Amy Woodyatt | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
Poop bags?… Check. Most people who attempt to climb the 8,849-meter (29,032-foot) Mount Everest do so via Nepal, paying $11,000 apiece just for the climbing permit. But the world’s highest peak has a poop problem, driven by the number of visitors, and the harsh conditions on the mountain, which interfere with the degradation process. Twelve climbers were confirmed to have died on the mountain, while another five remain officially missing. Jinesh Sindurakar of the Nepal Mountaineering Association told CNN that an estimated 1,200 people will be on Everest this season.
