To answer this question, CDU sustainability lecturer and adventurer Dr Chrystie Watson will climb the #SevenSummits to study the impact of #mountaineering activities.
This project is in collaboration with global mountaineering guide service, Climbing the Seven Summits, and is in response to concerns in recent years of environmental degradation and #overtourism in the regions.
“This project is providing us with insights into how we can foster sustainability best-practices within the Seven Summits regions through collaborations with mountaineers, industry, management, researchers, and local community groups and advocates,” Dr Watson said.
