World Health Organization Ranks Polluted Cities - WBAY-TV Green Bay-Fox Cities-Northeast Wisconsin News: "The World Health Organization released a new list of places with some of the worst air pollution in the world.
The organization measured pollution levels in 1,100 cities worldwide.
The WHO says cities in Iran, India, Pakistan, and Mongolia are some of the worst on the planet when it comes to air pollution.
The worst offender on the list -- Ahvez, Iran, has pollution levels almost 20 times worse than what's recommended for safe breathing.
The cities which fared worse were usually in more densely populated countries with less pollution regulation.
The WHO says cities in the U.S. and Canada were some of the least polluted on the list.
The WHO blames air pollution for more than two million deaths each year, and says reducing air pollution can reduce lung cancer, respiratory disease, and heart disease."
