Reinhold Messner, the first person to climb all 14 peaks over 8,000 meters without supplemental oxygen, observes that mountains are transforming before our eyes into an immense playground. Mountaineering has become just another consumer commodity.
The author returned to the slopes of this mountain and witnessed the invasion of the world's highest garbage dump.
An invasion that is spreading across all the 8,000-meter peaks of the Himalayas. The new-age climbers are urbanizing the mountains. Tourists from around the world are taking over these places!
They are causing pollution and causing an inevitable collapse of life.
