Iğdır, Turkey
The city of Iğdır, located near Mount Ararat is the most polluted city in Turkey. Scientists suggest that this is because the mountains that ring the city prevent airflow, which traps the polluted air in the region. This is especially dangerous in the winter, when residents burn coal to heat their homes.
