The article discusses solid waste pollution versus sustainable development in high mountain environments. The article is based on the study of Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest) National Park in Khumbu, Nepal. The increasing quantity of solid waste is a serious environmental problem in Sagarmatha National Park. The article suggests that both technical and non-technical solutions are needed to tackle this problem. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-02-21)
