Of all the trauma of the past year, one moment stands out for Alexandria Villase̴̴nor, a teenage climate activist, as the bellwether of what’s in store for the planet: It was last summer, when toxic wildfire smoke spread through northern California as the coronavirus prompted a lockdown.
“Businesses weren’t open or allowing people inside because it was unsafe,” she says. “But the air quality index was like 300-plus outside, which wasn’t safe either. It was, like, what mask do I wear for wildfire smoke and COVID? How can I stay safe from both threats?”
