The shelling, in Verdun for example, was so absurd that it's not really relatable to pollution. It was days upon days of non stop shells, including chemical shells, going over the same ground back and forth, for weeks if not months.
It really was something completely off the charts.
Edit0: from the wiki on the battle of verdun:
It lasted from february to december - in the very first 10h bombardment, on the first day, over 1 000 000 shells were shot over a 30km x 5 km strip.
It's hard to even imagine what that looks like!
