MOUNT EVEREST is in trouble. In the age of commercialization, Everest is being inundated with human activity. And, wherever the people congregate there is always going to be too much garbage and too much human waste. The government of Nepal has stepped up to the plate and recently made some new regulations for the 2024 season that will require all climbers and guides to carry with them bags in which they will carry out their own human waste and on top of that the local governing body in the Khumbu Valley has said they will be imposing new environmental guidelines that focus on luxuries at Base Camp that they say have an overwhelming impact on the environment. The latter is VERY controversial and is seen as a slap in the face of some expedition outfitter owners.

That is what we'll be covering in this fascinating and super informative video. I’ll break down all supposed changes on the mountain and I’ll provide some detail and analysis to see if things will really change on the mountain.
