Something like the planet’s “appendix,” it’s a repository of many of the invaluable things the earth needs to reboot parts of itself after a disaster like a war, flood, fire, or earthquake: seeds that supply the world’s residents with the food that keeps them— and their traditions—alive.Seeds from plants native to each nation are “deposited” in Svalbard and safely stored until they’re needed; a “just in case” collection that has already proven its necessity: The fighting and devastation in Syria have already prompted the vault’s first “withdrawal,” an emergency return of seeds needed to regrow essentials like wheat, barley, chickpeas, and beans.This fascinating and important book is also a pleasure to read, with Mr. Fowler’s scholarship translated into accessible and engaging prose. Of all the images in the book, the most enduring for me was a local woman pushing a baby carriage with a rifle strapped across her back—necessary protection from the very real threat of a polar bear attack.I think our seeds are safe in Svalbard! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A book we should all read! *by G***A on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2019* Incredibly informative book about what happens when, and if, humanity destroys itself. Frightening but optimistic. I rest a bit easier knower this vault is here. Brought up interesting questions and concerns regarding a vault to house sperm and eggs to repopulate the earth with animals. Definitely thought provoking. A must read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fascinating documentation on how Global Seed Vault came to be *by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2018* This book is filled with gorgeous illustrations and informative text about how Global Seed Vault was organized and built. The details about genetic diversity list the numbers of species, longevity of seed life, and so much more. Along with the descriptions of the contents of the vault the author talks extensively about the idea of the vault and what it took to build this building in one of the coldest parts of our planet.This book makes a great gift! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/33211070-seeds-on-ice-svalbard-and-the-global-seed-vault-svalbard](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/33211070-seeds-on-ice-svalbard-and-the-global-seed-vault-svalbard) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-06-12*
