Environmental woes for Italy

Although many Italians were enraged that the US refused to take part in the Kyoto agreement, Italy’s not doing so hot environmentally.

According to the European Urban Ecosystem classifications, Naples comes in last as Europe’s most polluted city.  Milan is second to last.  And Rome is fifth to last.

This perhaps explains why cities like Florence are busy cleaning black smog residue off their duomo 365 days a year.

Helsinki, Finland was given the prestigious title of the cleanest city.
