Smoke pollutants like diesel fumes would be very local - confined to the urban area and just downwind of it so unlikely to have a global effect. Emissions from power stations can have a signfiicant continental effect due to the height of chimneys size of point source etc. gets the stuff up high and floating a long way. It all falls down after a few days but has an important effect on the global averages from the albedo effect. Ozone reacted from transport exhaust can have a warming effect too. Not sure what the 10^4 thing is? You mean 10000 times more warming or less or what?
