2. Climb in the Everest
In May 1996 three expeditions attempted to climb Mount Everest on
the Southeast Ridge route pioneered by Sir Edmund Hillary and
Tenzing Norgay in 1953.
First successful ascent by Tenzing and Hillary

3. More than 3,500 people have successfully climbed the 29,029 ft. (8,848
m) mountain — and more than a tenth of that number scaled the peak
just over the past year. On one day alone in 2012, 234 climbers reached
the peak. As more and more people try to test themselves against
Everest.

4. The increased climber and tourist traffic on
Mount Everest has led to an increase in litter
and waste being left behind. As of 2008 there
was an estimated 120 tons of litter on the
mountain, mostly oxygen tanks, tents, and
other equipment. Human waste is also an
issue, with almost 900 pounds (about 400 kg)
of human waste having been collected off of
Mount Everest between 2008 and 2011.

5. How to fix the mess at the top of the world?
Six ways to repair Everest
Fewer permits To limit the total number of climbers and Sherpas on the mountain.
Smaller teams To reduce dangerous traffic jams on the standard Southeast Ridge route.
Certify outfitters To make sure that they meet acceptable standards of safety and mountain
knowledge.
Require experience To ensure that climbers and Sherpas are prepared for high-altitude
challenges.
Leave no trace To remove human waste and garbage from the mountain, with penalties for
noncompliance.
Remove bodies To show respect not only for the dead but also for the living, who encounter
corpses on main route.
