Description:
This is the idea of
storing samples of every available organism within an ecosystem.
It allows the Gene Bank project, which further allows the Planetery
Genome Project. If lots of organisms within your ecosystem are
becoming extinct due to industrial development or war damage, this
could be a vital project lest you lose too much of your ecosystem's
genetic material. (As it can become supremely valuable stuff
later on, in the genetic engineering phase).
