In April, five American activists were expelled from China after unfurling a banner at Everest base camp that read, "One World, One Dream, Free Tibet 2008," in a dig at the Beijing Games' official slogan "One World, One Dream."
Chinese mountaineers will carry the Olympic torch to the top of Mount Everest, making the final assault on the world's tallest peak from a staging camp some 500 yards from the summit.

I thought that was weird too. Why did they stop and use that eye sore as part of the scene?? Some weird things on youtube lately, with National geographic also. Maybe because of the ease of publishing they are getting lazy.

Well, Base camp is in Nepal, not China. And the top of Everest (Sagarmatha) is also in Nepal NOT in China or Tibet.

upnadam2create ~Those are prayer flags and devotional offerings, not trash heaps. I have no counter-argument but I have separate question - I ask you this: why do Westerners build parking lots and fence off landscapes, and call it improvement? Why is polluting rivers deemed advancement? Perhaps because, Commercial interests "programs" us to agree to like what profits commercial interest.

I was there 2005 and the roads were being built mostly by tibetan women carrying boulders by hand... painstakingly slow and very labourous. I'm glad that more people will be able to visit this beautiful location but I'm also torn about the amount of tourism and western influence in this remote and pristine area.

capitalism and consumerism will soon end, because the cicle is at it's end, look at it it has reached it's peak, Even Corps are consuming everything, and in the end themselfs, USA is banrupt although the federal reserve wont let that happen, yet. Do your homework then speak your opinion, cause you are dumb , not the monks.

Also capitalism and consumerism will not end.
