For some reason I’m always surprised at how badly tourists behave in foreign countries, particularly to sights considered sacred to the locals. Uluru is a good example, where the local tribes continuously asked tourists not to climb all over it, but no one gave a shit until the government finally outlawed it.
Good. Ridiculous amounts of entitled people.
It’s terrible the amount of trash left up on those mountains. Like, look at recent pictures of Everest. It’s basically a landfill at this point
I’ve never got the whole ‘Look! An area of outstanding natural beauty, let’s throw our shit all over it.’ idea.
For those folks, it starts being about being there rather than experiencing there. If that makes sense.
Doing it for the gram…
5 grams specifically. Of plastic. In each person’s body.
That would explain why those scales keep returning a larger number.
