Answer:

Local Level

Local pollution is mainly due to fixed sources (a mixture of residential and industrial) or mobile (exhausts fumes from road traffic). It is often ugly to look at or unpleasant to smell and the pollutants have a short life in the atmosphere. In the case of dense activity, high pollution levels can span whole agglomerations.  

Regional Level

Urban or industrial pollution can cover large distances and affect suburbs of agglomerations and even rural areas. This is especially case for what are known as “secondary” pollutants such as ozone (photochemical pollution) or fallout in the shape of acid rain. Fallout can occur tens, even hundreds of kilometres away from the place of emission.

Worldwide Level

Two main pollution phenomena have been highlighted on this scale.

-The destruction of the stratospheric ozone, or "hole” in the ozone layer.

-Global warming or climatic imbalance, due to the increase in man-made greenhouse gasses.

At this level, the origin of the emission is of little importance: all components emitted will accumulate in the atmosphere and persist for several dozens or hundreds of years and have an impact across the whole planet.
