Mount Everest has a trash problem. Decades of expeditions have left the world's highest mountain strewn with discarded oxygen canisters, abandoned tents, food packaging and worse — so much of it that the peak has earned the unflattering nickname of the "world's highest garbage dump." But DJI thinks its drones can help clean up the mess.
