1. Perform mass climbing activities (non-conservative)
Maybe we already know about a brand outdoor gear that performs mass ascent to Mount Semeru some time ago. I was invited to a friend's for the ascent ads peppered by words mountain clean-up, tree planting, and conservation.
The reality? Semeru into the trash and the greater the potential damage to ecosystems.
Before following the mass ascent, it is better to first survey. What is the capacity of the mountain, how many climbers are allowed to participate by the committee, and it is associated with other conservation.
Be a responsible climber, guys!
2. Larger share of polluting the environment
I've climbed a mountain with a colleague who seems to have been 'senior' in terms of climbing. However, on our way to rest, when he ate a snack, he also blithely throw the garbage carelessly. That portrait most hikers who do not understand the conservation.
How difficult does bring garbage in the bag?
At other times, when I'm want to take water in a fountain, looks a climber who was enjoying the ritual of B * B in the spring!
What he does not think people will drink from there? So much for difficult was it to dig a hole in the ground? Cats still got smarter!
And many climbers are still using chemicals that could be damaging. Do not be surprised if you find packs of soap / shampoo lying close in the spring.
3. Being indifferent and passive.
Considers the conservation task is guard duty National Park, porter, and environmental NGOs. Though climber himself who had a big part in protecting the environment.
Also ignores the established wisdom of local communities. Written or unwritten. Often myths mystical mountain is actually an attempt to conservation of the community.
Not to say this, "I am not a lover of nature, really. Just nature lovers. So it's not my job dong for conservation? "
4. Destructive beauty of the mountain
Not difficult to see graffiti vandalism in the rocks, tree trunks, even climbing post. Taking flora and fauna such as edelweiss flowers, acted recklessly causing forest fires. Cigarette butts and used bonfires are still lit, open lines that should not be, arbitrarily discard the dirty wet tissue and much more.
5. Not to share knowledge about the ascent of conservative
No doubt, mountain climbing impressed now become a 'tourist'. Moreover, a lot of the influence of television shows, movies, blogs, forums and many other media.
Sharing the spirit of mountain climbing to new people without coupled spirit of conservation will only make the climber climbers tend to be a generation of antipathy towards the environment and only concerned with sheer pleasure.
Some of us may have done the above, intentionally or unintentionally. Ever, please do not repeat it again and let's remind each other to fellow climbers.
Hopefully Indonesian mountains can still be enjoyed by our children's children will be. Amen.
Greetings sustainable!
