In honor of Earth Day, Emmy Award-winning composer, musician and philanthropist, Peter Buffett is releasing, “Plastic Tomb,” as a tool for generating awareness for taking better care of our world.
The driving rock ballad "Plastic Tomb," whose powerful beat and chilling harmonies remind 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 consisting 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.
Peter recently teamed his social action site IsThereSomethingICanDo.com with DoSomething.org, to match his issue-inspired songs with various ways to take action in your community. To learn about ways to decrease your carbon footprint, visit dosomething.org/istheresomethingicando/music.
