Sinopse

I want to start with a number: 31,797 kilograms.That is the amount of human waste that was removed from Mount Everest in the spring of 2025. One season. One mountain. Can anyone save Everest?

With the Tibet side closed, record numbers of climbers heading for the summit, and a waste crisis decades in the making — 2026 is the year that puts everything to the test. Here's what's really at stake.**THANK YOU TO OUR CAMP FOUR SPONSORS HERE AND ON PATREON**:Barbedwire Henriette PiMike NicholsonTom McLeodGeoff (mountain climber)Ursula DimbergerNoelle Dud13yThis video discusses new regulations for climbing Mount Everest, requiring climbers to first ascend a 7,000m peak in Nepal.
