Inside the Doomsday Seed Vault

Take a look at this video of the inside of the Doomsday Seed Vault. Does anyone else find it interesting that this Global Seed Bank contains pure, non-GMO seeds just in case there is a castrophic event that would require re-seeding the entire planet?

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Monsanto and our Federal Government are working tirelessly to infect the entire planet with Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO), while at the same time making sure that the average Joe is unable to save his own seeds through a combination of Terminator seed technology and Gestapo-like practices, and is forced to propagate the very GMO scourge that the Doomsday Seed Vault is built to address.

So, we have a huge global seed bank that contains seeds that the average Joe hasn't a snowball's chance in hell of gaining access to, and no privately-owned personal seed banks. And just who do you think will have access to the only remaining supply of unaltered seeds after this planned-for and orchestrated catastrophe? Your guess is as good as mine, but I'll place my bet on the ruling elite after they exterminate of 80% of the little people like you and me through a combination of complete control over food and water, as well as endless war.

2. Jeez, just buy heirloom seeds....
Yes, the vault has some seeds that almost nobody has access to, just as the zoo has rare animals. The vault is a seed library.


If you want non-GMO seeds, there are hundreds of websites where you can order them.

3. I have a huge
tote under my bed filled with heirloom seeds from bountiful gardens and rareseeds. My own personal doomsday vault. I am slowly planting different varieties to see which do well in my microclimate.
