Budapest Racks Up Both Clean and Filthy City Awards

According to a report from our friends at Hungary Around the Clock, Budapest won the dirtiest city "award" in an online poll followed by overpolluted regulars from the Hungarian rust-belt Ózd and Miskolc. This of course comes only a day or so after the EU recognized Bufapest for its efforts to fight pollution through educating citizens and other means, such as (we're guessing) the decision to only allow half of the cars into the city on smog filled days. And judging from the picture, it's been working, as you can almost make out what that circular bright thing in the sky is!
