从2005年6月19日起,“Svalbard世界种子地窖”开始正式修建。由于这个种子地窖是为了应付人类可能遭遇到的千年劫难,因此,人们称之为“末日仓库”。“末日仓库”是挪威在北极圈套内一个偏远孤岛上开凿一个巨大的储藏库,隐蔽在这座冰封孤岛的山腰上,面积足有半个足球场大,周围是永久冻土带,库内气温将会常年保持在零下18℃。此座种子库是科学家们经过大量考察和研究才选择的一座砂岩山。这里是最靠近北极的地区之一,低温冻土带是长期保存种子的理想地点。目前,世界上有大约200万种农作物和草料种子,“末日仓库”里将存放几乎世界上所有的不同种类的农作物和植物种子,而这些种子是农业文明诞生以来人类不断经过选择育种的方式培育而成的。其中,仅大米就有超过10万种,香蕉也有1000种以上。“末日仓库”建设的主要目的
From June 19, 2005 onwards, “Svalbard World Seed Cellar” began to be formally constructed. Because this seed cellar was designed to cope with the millennium catastrophe that humans may encounter, people call it the Doomsday Warehouse. “Doomsday Warehouse ” is Norway in the Arctic trap set off a remote island to create a huge repository, hidden in the frozen island hillside, half the size of the football field, surrounded by permafrost, The temperature in the library will be kept at minus 18 ℃ all the year round. This seed bank is a sandstone mountain that was selected by scientists after extensive research and study. It is one of the areas closest to the Arctic and the permafrost is the ideal place to preserve seeds for long periods of time. Currently, there are about 2 million kinds of crops and forage seeds in the world, and “Doomsday Warehouse” will contain almost all the different kinds of crops and plant seeds in the world that have been selectively bred since the birth of agricultural civilization Ways to nurture. Among them, there are more than 100,000 kinds of rice alone and more than 1,000 kinds of bananas. “Doomsday Warehouse ” main purpose of building
