The Democratic Party wants to help Earth stay healthy by taking care of the air and water we all use every day.
Imagine you're playing with your toys in a big room, that's like Earth. If someone keeps turning on loud fans and spilling juice everywhere, it makes the room messy and hard to play in. That’s what happens when people burn things like coal and gasoline, they make pollution, which is like the mess from the fans and spilled juice.
The Democratic Party believes we should use cleaner ways to power our toys (and our real world), like using solar panels or windmills, instead of the messy stuff. They want to plant more trees and protect places like oceans and forests, kind of like cleaning up after a big playdate so everyone can enjoy the room again.
Making it Better for Everyone
The Democratic Party also wants people to work together to fix this mess. They think if we all do our part, Earth will stay fun to play in for a long time, not just today, but for your friends and even your future kids too!
