A secure seedbank located on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen near the town of Longyearbyen in the remote Arctic Svalbard archipelago, about 1,300 kilometres (810 mi) from the North Pole. The facility preserves a wide variety of plant seeds in an underground cavern. The seeds are duplicate samples, or “spare” copies, of seeds held in gene banks worldwide. The seed vault is an attempt to provide insurance against the loss of seeds in genebanks, as well as a refuge for seeds in the case of large-scale regional or global crises. The seed vault is managed under terms spelled out in a tripartite agreement between the Norwegian government, the Global Crop Diversity Trust (GCDT) and the Nordic Genetic Resource Center (NordGen).
my uncle actually just explained all this to me a couple nights ago :O
but basically humanity is depending on this bank for survival in case some sort of disaster happens
Everybody needs this on their blog.

If your parents are telling you you’re too fat to land a husband, tell them brown guys are too skinny and short for you anyways! Also tell them you don’t want to marry an electric engineer or accountant! That works too!
Okay! COOL!
