Wildfire smoke is increasingly impacting air quality in regions like the northeastern U.S. and California, leading experts to suggest these areas should prepare for more frequent poor air quality days, akin to a "smoke season." While California faces year-round wildfire risks, the Northeast's issues are largely driven by seasonal fires in Canada, exacerbated by climate change. Experts emphasize the need for improved indoor air filtration and building management to mitigate health risks associated with prolonged exposure to smoke plumes. AI
