Description
Something as small as a seed can have a worldwide impact. Did you know there are top-secret seed vaults hidden throughout the world? And once a seed disappears, that's it--it's gone forever?

Description
In the natural world, everything is connected. As Water gathers in strength from a tumbling creek to a roaring river, it quenches Tree's thirst and helps it grow and stretch toward the sky. And as Sun's rays grow stronger, so too do the sprouts and fruits and insects of the forest, all working together in harmony. Even Fire sometimes creates a fresh start for the next generation of living things.
