Movies on the News: Saving for the Future

A "doomsday" seed vault built to protect millions of food crops from climate change, wars and natural disasters opened Tuesday deep within an Arctic mountain in the remote Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard. "The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is our insurance policy," Norway's Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg told delegates at the opening ceremony. "It is the Noah's Ark for securing biological diversity for future generations." --msnbc.msn.com


"We've made living biological attractions so astounding that they'll capture the imagination of the entire planet." -- John Hammond, Jurassic Park (1993)

"For within each seed, there is a promise of a flower, and within each death, no matter how small, there is always new life." --Dillon, Alien 3 (1992)

"Mammals, a day of reckoning is coming. That's right, the same plants and flowers that saw you crawl from the primordial soup will reclaim the planet. And there will be no one to protect you." --Poison Ivy, Batman and Robin (1997)
