Emmy Award-winning composer, musician, philanthropist, and author Peter Buffett along with social action site, DoSomething.org – launched last year with Grammy-nominated recording artist Akon – has released a new issue-inspired single to commemorate Earth Day. "Plastic Tomb," a rock ballad with powerful beats and chilling harmonies, reminds us of the relentless grip that big box stores have on today's consumer culture.

The harm from such material excess is evident in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch – a Texas-sized vortex of marine litter that consists of pelagic plastics, chemical sludge, and other debris in the Northern Pacific ocean. With characteristic urgency, Peter implores us to break free from these wasteful habits, and in turn, eliminate the wake of plastic and paper across the planet.
