Nepal announced a 36% increase in Everest climbing permit fees, raising the cost from $11,000 to $15,000, effective September 1. The new measures aim to address garbage pollution with mandatory waste management protocols, fee increases for other seasons, and require climbers to bring back human waste using biodegradable bags.
