    And I bet the, almost exclusively rich, people who actually created the mess (I would guess the vast majority of climbers have been there in the past 20-30 years) won’t even contribute to fund this, never mind actually clean up after themselves like they should have in the first place (and like those still swarming the sacred monument continue to do in exchange for the ego boost they’re there to seek).

    That’s truly depressing, but unfortunately in line with how we’re treating the rest of the planet 😔
