Chinese environmentalists to clean up mountain of trash on Everest
Beijing, China - environmentalists plan to climb Mount Everest and rid the world's highest peak of some of the tonnes of garbage that have accumulated over decades of mountaineering, state media said Monday.
A group of nearly 100 volunteers plan to scale the peak's slopes in a bid to collect as much as possible of the estimated 615 tonnes of waste left by past expeditions, the China Daily reported.
