    Ever wondered what will happen if we fail to prevent Climate Change? Read this article and watch the video of the real Plan B, from the Guardian.

    February 26 2008: An ambitious project to safeguard the world’s future food supplies was inaugurated today. The £1.7m “Noah’s ark of seeds” near the town of Longyearbyen, in Norway's remote Svalbard islands, will protect the 2m seeds that represent the world’s agricultural biodiversity against threats such as nuclear war, asteroid impact, terrorist attack, climate change and rising sea levels.
