Silver lining: Everest gets a bit taller with every dump left behind.

Save yourself, it's too late for me...
Red Harvest is so good.

Won’t this be great once the earth warms up 5 degrees?
For a while, yes. But the whole reason why there is so much shit up there is that the low temperature keeps it from getting processed by micro organisms, no? So once that really gets going we should see a wholly new ecosystem up there of plants, fungi, and animals that previously never inhabited the area.
Note: this is my semi-educated take and I would love for an actual biologist to comment on how climate change will transform Everest.

It's the lack of oxygen up there too, and I don't think climate change will affect that

Remeber: whenever someone tells you to strive for success and live each day like it's your last, every dead body on Everest was once a highly motivated person; so maybe just chill a bit.
Well, most of the bodies are there because they chilled a little too much.

Thanks to global warming they won't be chilling for too long

sadly a lot of them are just very wealthy tourists and pay a lot of money to be babied up a very difficult mountain with a very small peak, and some just REFUSE to understand that "death zone" isn't a tongue-in-cheek, cutesy kind of name, it lacks the oxygen you need to be alive. Still, someone's bored generational wealth having kid is gonna walk up there without a tank and see what happens.

They should load the dead bodies up with garbage and slide them to the bottom.
they will straight up drop them into cracks in the ice. honestly, it's more dignified than climbers using your earthly remains as a mile marker and nicknaming you something like "Black Finger's McGee"

"I hiked Everest and all I got was this 20lb bag of poop."
Decent T-shirt idea. Small pool of target customers though.
