Mount Everest - the highest peak in the Himalayas - is in serious trouble An international effort is needed to preserve its natural features and the life it supports
Recently, an environmental team decided to explore the mountain to find out exactly what was happening They found that places which used to be covered in ice are now under water, that there are fewer trees and animals, and that a lot of garbage has been left on the mountain
There are several reasons for these changes Industries around the world keep producing gases that make the climate warmer, which melts the ice on Mount Everest Also, the number of tourists on the mountain is now very high People seem to think that nothing they makes a difference on such a huge mountain, so they cut down trees for campfires and leave a lot of garbage around
Efforts are being made to replace lost trees, especially those which take a long time to grow For example, a general message to the tourists suggests using faster-growing trees and plants to make campfires As for the garbage, tour groups have also promised to clean up their camps "We are looking forward to seeing many improvements," one guide says, "but I can't help feeling that problems will continue to grow After all, we alone can't control climate change."
