The doomsday vault that's supposed to store every known crop on the planet is in danger.

The vault has seeds from more than 60 institutions and almost every country in the world, collected from over 1,500 global gene banks that store samples of seeds from crops native to a region.

posolet: Brazil was and still devastating their natural resources. A movement to stop it was growing up in the Amazon. The leader of that movement was killed. I can't remember his name, maybe 'Chavez'?



Are you thinking maybe of Chico Mendes. Chavez was a former dictator/president of Venezuela. wave
