A music video released last week as part of Earth Day celebrations looks at consumer culutre and the very real effect it is having on our oceans, as seen in the Pacific Ocean garbage patch.

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a Texas-sized vortex of marine litter consisting of pelagic plastics, chemical sludge, and other debris in the Northern Pacific ocean.

Musician Peter Buffet uses his song to urge people to change their wasteful habits, and in turn, lessen the effects of plastic waste products on the planet.

The video, released in conjunction with DoSomething.org, is shown below:
