As Korea’s first World Natural Heritage Site, Hallasan Mountain carries the unique natural features and ecological values of Korea, and is a sacred place in the hearts of Korea. With its magnificent scenery, abundant vegetation and diverse ecology, it attracts countless tourists to climb and watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, in recent years, a wave of “mountaineering instant noodles” has brought unexpected disasters to Hallasan. In order to pursue the unique experience of cooking instant noodles at the top of the mountain and taking photos, climbers carry instant noodles up the mountain. A large amount of instant noodle garbage is discarded in mountain streams and soil, and the leftover instant noodle buckets, disposable chopsticks and wrapping paper are particularly dazzling in the otherwise beautiful natural scenery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What’s more, the salt-rich instant noodle soup has become the “culprit” of ecological destruction. These instant noodle soups seeped into the soil, causing soil salinization, causing serious damage to the plant ecology on the mountain, withering the turf and dying of plants in large areas. Endangered animals such as dragonflies, black spotted frogs, and Jeju salamanders, which used to inhabit the area, are also facing extinction due to the pollution of their living environment. The strong smell of instant noodles also attracts wild animals such as crows, weasels and badgers, who not only threaten their own health but also disturb the natural ecological balance when they eat contaminated food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hallasan’s instant noodle garbage problem is not just an isolated case in Korea, it is also a wake-up call for global environmental protection. In the famous mountain ranges of other countries, similar environmental problems have arisen from time to time. This reminds us of the importance of protecting the natural environment while enjoying the beauty and pleasure that nature brings. Every tourist should consciously abide by the regulations of the scenic spot, do not throw away garbage at will, and do not destroy the ecological balance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
