The Blacksmith Institute released its' list of the world's 10 dirtiest cities and 3 of them are in Russia:

  • Chernobyl, Ukraine

  • Dzerzinsk, Russia

  • Haina, Dominican republic

  • Kabwe, Zambia

  • La Oroya, Peru

  • Linfen, China

  • Mailuu-Suu, Kyrgyzstan

  • Norlisk, Russia

  • Ranipet, India

  • Rudnaya Pristan, Russia


    • In the US in 2005, 55% of Americans lived in areas with unhealthy levels of ozone or pollution. Hopefully with the stricter, new emissions standards that were introduced in December 2006, the air in the US will make a difference.

    I am reading a blog right now about the Chernobyl incident. I have to wonder if they will ever attempt to clean this area up?
