Saving the future of food from climate change

Posted on 07 September 2009

In this TED Talk, the Executive Director of Global Crop Diversity Trust - Cary Fowler - takes us through the state of diversity in the food our farmers are growing. The news is not good but he also shares the project with Norwegian government to create a global seed bank. Known as Svalbard Global Seed Vault, this bank already had 425,000 samples of unique crop varieties and the goal of having at least 500 different varieties of each crop in the world.
