Havasupai Indian Waterfall Relaxation Video
Take a relaxing journey to the magical blue-green waters of the hidden Havasupai Indian Reservation, in Arizona. It's one of the most amazing natural wonders in the US (if not the world), as well as one of it's best kept secrets. It's a 10 mile hike through canyon valleys to get there, but it's worth every step.
Cary Fowler: One seed at a time, protecting the future of food
The varieties of wheat, corn and rice we grow today may not thrive in a future threatened by climate change. Cary Fowler takes us inside a vast global seed bank, buried within a frozen mountain in Norway, that stores a diverse group of food-crop for whatever tomorrow may bring.
Amazonia: The Last Eden - Conservation International
The Kayapó maintain a traditional way of life and protect one of the world's most important rainforests at the same time. Just as they need the forest intact to live, so do we need it to mitigate climate change and provide a wealth of biodiversity to the world.

To who it may concern. This is Sarah Young. I have done a couple of internships and been wanting to do conservation internships abroad. This November Video Picks intrigued me. I like seeing you think outside the box and providing us various conservation projects. We learn something new every day. For example, today, I learned in "Time" magazine, a Swedish company Minesto created an underwater Kite, which its turbines can generate 800 times more energy than if in the air. They plan to unveil this next year in Northern Ireland. Thought you might be interested in it as I am.
Anyways, I am curious as to why you posted the conservation in Amazonia. Do you plan to expand the organization internationally? If so, I have been looking to do a conservation internship in the UK, New Zealand, Australia or some other country. I know I talked to someone, I forget the name, the head of my environmental major at Colby-Sawyer College and looked online for other possible organizations who might do it without success. I think it would be a benefit to not only your organization but also conservation interns, etc etc. What are your views on the subject?
Thank you for your time. Have a great day.
Havasupai Indian Waterfall Relaxation
The picture are great but the music is all wrong for a relaxation video. For relaxation there should not be any shrill sounds. Even when say a Pan flute is used the tones are muted. If the sound track were reworked this would be a great vidio. As it is, it is a good video just not for relaxation.
