THE DOOMSDAY SEED VAULT

The Pod Factory!
l was watching a documentary on television and l thought why haven't l heard about this before?
The Norway Prime Minister said 'The Global Seed Vault' is our insurance policy. lt is the Noah's Ark for future generations.



Also called 'The Frozen Garden of Eden' it has the capacity to store 4.5 million seed samples from around the world. Built into a mountain in the Arctic it can withstand an earthquake or a nuclear strike. Other country's can deposit seeds without charge and reserve the right to withdraw upon need.
Sounds a bit scary but as you can see from the pictures Australia is prepared for whatever also. We have also sent 1000's of seeds to be included and stored for future generations in case of disasters.
Sounds very scary to me.
