Himalayas Clean Up
Every year, fourteen kids from all over the world go into the Himalayas to clean up garbage. Where does the garbage come from? When a hiker goes up into the mountains they leave garbage all over the trails and trail ditches. The kinds of garbage are usually non- biodegradable so they just sit there scaring what little wild life is up there. The kids take care of the land for week in exchange for 4000 dollars. It’s a little pricey but it’s worth saving an ecosystem and a great vacation. The villagers in the Himalayas don’t really like the living style that tourists have made for them. When tourists don’t have anywhere to stay almost all the villagers homes are open to shelter. But the village people don’t appreciate how the tourists bring all this waste into the Himalayas then leave it there. So every year, fourteen kids go into the Himalayas to clean up the mess.
