A team of six persons led by French climber Thomas Dutheil spent a couple of weeks collecting the garbage. "There were five Sherpa climbers to run this campaign," Dutheil said. The team has handed over garbage to the Kathmandu Metropolis officials amidst a function. The team left for Annapurna base camp on March 04 and returned to Kathmandu on April 10, said Dutheil. During the campaign, the team also shared their skill with other climbers to collect and manage the waste. "It's a huge challenge in mountains to keep the environment clean," Dutheil said, adding that Himalayas are also facing an instant threat of global warming. According to him, the campaign will continue in the coming seasons.
