The Extreme Everest Expedition ( EEE-2010) has successfully completed its goal of cleaning up garbage from above 8,000 meters on Mt. Everest (also known as Mt. Qomolangma).

A team of 20 Nepali Sherpas led by Namgyal Sherpa cleaned up the garbage from the region commonly referred to as "Death Zone," according to Nepal Investment Bank (NIB), an organizer of EEE-2010.

Realizing the Corporate Social Response (CSR), one of the leading commercial Nepali banks, NIB organized the expedition to raise awareness on climate change impact on Himalayas.

The team cleared out 1,800 kg of garbage that was piled onto a symbolic "mountain" at Everest Base Camp. The mountain of garbage was equally divided between degradable and non-degradable waste. The EEE team was climbed up on Base Camp on April 25.

According to NIB, the degradable waste was brought to Namche Bazar and given to the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee ( SPCC), a responsible organization for the disposal of waste in the region. The non-disposable garbage was carried on yak and jopkyo to Lukla airport and flown out to capital Kathmandu.

The EEE-2010 has also rescued two bodies--Swiss climber Gianni Goltz, who died in 2009 and Russian climber Serey Duganov. Both bodies were successfully brought down from above 8,000 meters and helicoptered off the mountain from Camp II, according to the organizer informed media during press meet on Sunday.

Moreover, the EEE has been documented by its team while climbing and cleaning above 8,000 meters. They climbed down with over 33 hours of footage. According to Prithvi Bahadur Pandey, President of NIB, the 33 hours footage will be materialized into documentary film to raise awareness of climate change impact over Himalayas.

He also added that the documentary will be shown at the schools all over the Nepal an effort to spread awareness on environmental pollution, climate change and the urgent need to clean our planet.
