How do I start up my MacBook Air

My battery died and my computer turned off. I put it on the charger and the charging light was orange but it still didn’t power on. The charging light is now green but it isn’t powering on. I don’t hear any sound or see any lights besides the charger light when plugged in. Please help…

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

The power button is the Touch ID button in the upper right corner of the keyboard, or (if there is no Touch ID on your MacBook Air) the power button a a physical button in the upper right.
