How did the climbing of Mt Everest effect Mt Everest?

The increasing number of climbers on Mt. Everest has led to significant environmental concerns, including littering, overcrowding, and waste management issues. The summit area is now often referred to as "Death Zone" due to the accumulation of abandoned gear, human waste, and even bodies, which pose health risks and detract from the mountain's natural beauty. Additionally, the pressure from tourism has raised concerns about the impact on local ecosystems and the overall sustainability of climbing practices. Conservation efforts are being implemented to mitigate these effects and preserve the mountain for future generations.
