npub1hq5k0yyd2k0q23s26c2xp3r4l2gvwamm8yedrdgzurp9ytpkrj5sh6qqsd (npub1hq5…qqsd) Agreed, white tourists and "explorers" leaving their waste there, and exploiting local folk in other ways too, is grim. The article was written by a Nepalese journalist and does highlight that the program is small scale. It also gives more context on the type of waste that people are dealing with, which includes human waste, food remnants, cooking and oxygen gas cylinders, mountaineering gears, ropes and tents. Sorry it (or our caption) missed the mark for you.
