Description
Called both a "Doomsday Vault" and a library of life, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault is a collection of the seeds of thousands of different plant species, held in frozen reserve against the eventuality of ecological disaster or other means of crop extinction. This program spotlights scientists who are working with the Svalbard team to preserve Earth's biodiversity, along with some potential recipients of that endeavor -- Kenyan farmers affected by drought due to climate change. With sobering discussions about the potential impact of global warming on the world's food supply, Seed Warriors makes the point that taking action now is a wise safeguard against future food shortages.
