Is Mt. Everest just meant for making records....Is anyone really worried about it????



Today we all aware about young mountain climbers like Raghav Juneja...who are creating wonders and what I think is that when a 15 years old boy can climb it...so there will be a time when there will be no limit of age for people to go on Mt. Everest. But I'm not here to tell you about record makers or breakers just want to make you aware about the other side of it.

 Year 1953, when Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary created wonder by challenging the tough terrains of Everest. Till that time no one was in a position to face it, but today it's made easy through trainings. As it is obvious that climbing this enormous mountain is not at all a simple job, so several equipments are needed along with food and other accessories. So throughout the way they're continuously using those things but do they take care that whether that trash is dumped properly or not or the atmospheric conditions are suitable or not??? Not at all.

Recently an interview was done with a Mt. Everest climber who told the condition of garbage which is increasing day by day but no one is bothered about it. It was told that objects like oxygen cylinders, food wrappers, poly bags are left behind by climbers near their camps and along their way, also the level of CO2 is increasing there due to increase in the climbers in last 10 years. Last year there was a day when 230 climbers were on their way at the same time. Now just think that if such type of chaos will be created, so what will happen....will natural beauty remain the same?? 

It's good that people are trying to challenge and getting against the toughest conditions of nature but when it comes on preserving that same so reactions are different. The thing is not only to achieve that but also to have a sense of respect for it because one day that nature can spoil human civilization. Till now many have tried to climb this beautiful but risky peak....some succeeded, some not and some lost their life. Now it is proved that human has customized itself to face such condition, so is it still required to take risk and face the tough situations of Mt. Everest....the enormous, what do you think???
