How does one protect the world from flooding and disease, and even restore damaged habitats?
 To protect the world from these issues, one must simply protect the plants.  Plants naturally help with the above issues along with keeping the soil healthy as well.  Plants are a very big part of life on Earth. The food, the books we read, and many other items all depend on plants.  However, plants and their biodiversity are under threat from climate change, people, and invasive species and need some human protection.

To save the plants, people need to save the seeds, and that is what the Millenium Seed Bank is for.  Twenty-four thousand species are already safely stored within this organization.  These seeds are believed to be able to stay that way for thousands of years, protecting a biodiverse Earth for generations to come.  However, the job is far from done as these three-billion seeds only account for 10% of all the plant species on the Earth.  More seeds need to be gathered to project the world from floods and disease from now and into the distant future.
