Both.

Two processes ridge-push and slab-pull, are thought to be responsible for spreading at mid-ocean ridges. Ridge-push refers to the gravitation sliding of the ocean plate that is raised above the hotter asthenosphere, which creates a body force causing sliding of the plate down-slope.

Tectonic plates definition
Setler79 [48]
Tectonic plates are parts (pieces) of the outermost layer of Earth: the Crust. (the outermost part of the mantle is also often included in the plates). This means that the land in the middle of the plates is relatively stable while the borders of the plates can be in movement - after all this is where two pieces meet. Plate borders are where the vocanoes and Earthquakes often take place.

Explain why air pollution on a global scale can affect air quality on a local scale?
Citrus2011 [14]

The vast pollution which occurs globally can have a significant impact on air quality on a local scale. The reason for this is quite simple: polluted air can easily get trapped beneath a cloud cover, or be literally "blown" away to other locations, and when much polluted air gets accumulated, it can have devastating heath effects on a local population, not just to humans, but to animals and plants as well. Overall, the vast global pollution can effect the smallest of regions on an unprecedented scale.
