Mount Everest Cleanup- Madi Haggard

Our glorious Mount Everest is consumed in the trash.  Decades of ascending the world's highest mountain leave it turned into a huge garbage dump.  Thankfully, a dedicated, impressively fit, a team of volunteers decided to tackle the problem.  A 14-person team is completing the job.  They are carrying out one of the world's most ambitious clean-up.  Three tonnes of garbage has been collected from the mountain in only the first two weeks of the plan.

This article shows how the wild can impress and how easily we can destroy it.  This crew proves there are people out there cautiously trying to make a difference.  I reported on this article because I think it is essential to learn and stay up to date on events about nature.  This article was published on May 2, 2019, and was made to inform people of incredible volunteer work.
