Air quality projects introduced by Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson earned international accolades Tuesday.

The World Leadership Award was presented to Anderson, on behalf of Salt Lake City, by the World Leadership Forum in London at the Royal Courts of Justice.

The city was selected among 400 of the world's largest cities, which also submitted synopses of their most successful projects.
