Fresh Nibbles

    1. The Svalbard Global Seed Vault gets the Princesa de Asturias Prize for international cooperation. Time to celebrate.
    2. Celebrating Pamela Ronald and scuba rice.
    3. Celebrating Ohsoon Yun and the geography of coffee.
    4. I’ll certainly celebrate if the approach of the NATURE-FIRST project can be applied to loss of agricultural biodiversity one day.
    5. The World Bank is in a celebratory mood with regards to geospatial and Earth observation data. I’ll join them when they fund a NATURE-FIRST for crop diversity.
