I personally think that this is unneeded. But that's my humble opinion.

Seems a bit over the top in my opinion. In case of the world wide calamity they are talking about there wouldn't be enough seed stored there to feed the world anyway.

I think the idea is that once we've ruined the world, the seeds are planted on all our graves... and the world is restored to a garden paradise, like it was before man started thinking... :) Of course just who plants them and how they get them planted is um... well... unlikely when it's burried in a vault in the artic.

Ray, don't you know that with global warming, soon the arctic will become a tropical zone? In fact, soon it will become so warm that it will melt the walls of the vault. Of course, that won't do much good for the seeds. In fact, due to global warming, the Earth will probably get so hot that it can maintain a fusion reaction. That'll make life great for those few humans who escaped to Mars.
