Our future might lie on those who own the seeds, same as our present depends on those who own the oil.

fricken monsanto .....save world kind my ass to control is all it`s about

@peakoilprepare totally, an i bet theyv built themselves their luxury bunkers and shelters too.

[peakoilprepare]

The seed vault is like that 2012 movie... it's made for the rich 1%, not us 99%. Even after the apocalypse, monsanto still evily owns the world?? shit. Save your rain water with a barrel and piss on your planrs. Old school country ways are God's ways, simple elegance.

@sharkie15893 hydroponics saves the day with basic things we have too much of. water from rain and fertilizer from pissing on the plants. God's earth is pretty resilient overall. That seed vault is not for us (the 99%), it's for the 1%. Boo!!

[jaalul]

so let me get this straight. If the world is in chaos and all that is left is some clueless people walking about, we actually have seeds to save us from starvation?

Oh and all we have to do is swim to this island 500 km away from any continent?

Oh and the water is 2 degrees.

so then I should keep a swim suit just in case i guess!

[sharkie15893]

what if something happens to the soil/earth that we cannot grow anything with the seeds?

@chuck4842 the world depend on Norway. lol

@TorontoBoi Huh? This facility is to contain the genetical information of plants that might prove to be beneficial in the future. Its more about science than selfish and pointless hoarding. And besides you are the "elite". You do not live in a 3rd world country as a poor farmer.

I don't get it why these comments are so pessimistic.

"for us, and our children."

LOL, translation: "for the global elites, and their children. The rest of you useless eaters can just roll over and die."

@lifewarrior2375

Do you mean Fricken (Mon"saintain")

Monsanto Corporation, Syngenta Foundation and other chemical industrial complex GMO producers are amongst the investors behind this. Food ownership is the issue here, once GM produce has contaminated every major non GM crop on the planet, and it will happen, too late to stop it, the patent holders will control food production and distribution. The end of bio-diversity is the natural consequence of GM production, hence the Seed Vault, a means to ownership of all non GM seed also.
