Frøbank på Svalbard

Verdens største frøbank (Global Seed Vault), som lagrer frø af spiselige arter af planter, så de bevares for fremtiden. Det ligger dybt i et bjerg på Svalbard, 300 kilometer nord for polarcirklen. Det blev åbnet af den norske regering i 2008. Frøbeholderen har kapacitet til at lagre 4,5 millioner prøver.

Frøkasser, der sendes til frøtanken fra hele verden, og opbevaring af frø i hvelvet er gratis for alle brugere. Det er en af de sikreste faciliteter i verden designet til at overleve en global katastrofe. Det ligger 120 meter i bjergene og er godt beskyttet af robuste sikkerhedssystemer. At anlægget er omgivet af permafrost hjælper også med at sikre og bevare prøverne.
