Abstract

The article focuses on Nepal's new five-year action plan aimed at addressing waste accumulation on its high mountains, including Mount Everest. The Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation announced measures to regulate climbing by potentially limiting the number of climbers and scheduling expeditions to alleviate congestion and ensure safety. This initiative, part of the Action Plan to Keep Mountains Clean (2025-2029), follows a Supreme Court order requiring clear specifications on climbing permits. Additionally, annual clean-up efforts have resulted in the collection of over 83 metric tonnes of waste from major peaks during the Spring 2025 climbing season. [Extracted from the article]
