WOW Moment

Did you know thaat Norway is planning to build a monumental seed bank to house specimens of all the world's known crops?
Well, according to Adbusters (March-April 2006) this is true.

It will be built on the island of Spitsbergen, above the Arctic Circle. It will be made of concrete a meter thick, with airlocks and blast-proof doors and they claim the permafrost surrounding it will be the refrigeration.

Now this is a government that is planning for the future! How fortunate for the generations to come to have such forward thinking people.
