The planet is part of what drove singer and songwriter Billie Eilish to endorse Kamala Harris for president.

The Grammy-winning pop star and her brother and collaborator, Finneas O’Connell, posted their endorsement of the vice president on social media Tuesday to mark National Voter Registration Day.

“We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy,” Eilish said, adding, “Vote like your life depends on it — because it does.”

O’Connell said on the video, “We can’t let extremists control our lives, our freedoms and our future. The only way to stop them and the dangerous Project 2025 agenda is to vote and elect Kamala Harris.”
