..if the rainforest weren’t enough

I’m here in the Brazilian Amazon for PRI’s The World and the BBC World Service. But BBC colleagues are currently in another extraordinary place: Chomolungma. Sagarmatha. Mt Everest. (The first two names are those used in Tibet and Nepal respectively.)

Here’s a neat video from Jonah Fisher, a tour of the purpose-built media center just short of Everest Base Camp. Members of the media are there to cover the next stage of the Olympic torch relay, an event that’s caused much controversy this year.
