In 2006, based on this bank, under the auspices of the UN, the World Seed Bank was created to preserve the planting material of all agricultural plants worldwide. Each country got its seed box in this bank!
Did you know that the world's largest secure seed bank is located in the Arctic?😱
World Seed Bank - what is it? This is a unique building located in an abandoned coal mine in the mountains of the island of Svalbard (Norway).
The first idea of creating a collection of seeds for scientific and applied purposes first appeared in the 1920s in the USSR. After the Second World War, similar projects began to appear in other countries. In 1979, the Scandinavian countries created a common seed bank.

Do unicorns exist? It turns out yes! But they are unique sea unicorns from the Arctic — narwhals.
Narwhals are scarce animals in the Red Book and live only in the upper latitudes of the Arctic.
These creatures are known as "sea unicorns". And their distinguishing feature is a long horn, which, however, only occurs in males. These animals have only two upper teeth, and one eventually develops into a horn that can grow up to 3 meters in length.
Littered places attract problematic elements of society, which can become an additional problem for the territory. Therefore, the place must be cleaned first, and then, of course, it is necessary to maintain this purity.
"Everyone wants to live in a clean place, many are ready to do something themselves, but they are faced with the inability to organize special events" - this is a quote from a fascinating article about how one caring person collected a bag of garbage every day.
There is a theory of broken windows, which says that if at least one window in the house is broken, the next one will be broken, which can lead to more severe violations. Where it is clean, there will be less litter, but where it is already so dirty, they will throw more garbage.
