Yeah, there's localized effects. Like where I live, particulate matter and ozone skyrocketed after they installed a massive gas-powered datacenter in the neighboring town. But globally, it takes forever for these effects to pile up and cause a dent. Which is why they are measured in average increase per decade.
Main source of those is combustion engines btw
There hasn't been a doubling of car traffic in the same time period.
