In the Himalayan mountains standing tall and proud, climate change is erasing snowy beauties and unveiling hundreds of climbers who lost their lives in the quest of the peak of mount Everest. In this year, a team has recovered five bodies in which one body was decomposed to the bone form and was also taken as a part of Nepal Mountain Cleaning Programme. Read more about the unfathomable and time-consuming practice of chiseling through ice and using boiling water to release the bodies which are sometimes encased in climbing equipment. For this purpose, campaigns such as ‘Nepal for Base Camp: Save the Mountain’ and ‘Dreams of the Mountains’ have been launched to prevent the mountains from turning into a graveyard, whereas constant efforts have been made to recover the bodies and, along with it, 11 tons of garbage have been collected from the Everest and other mountains. 🗻
