By 2030, humans organize an effort in an attempt to build a comprehensive gene library, collecting and categorizing species from all of earth's biological kingdoms to preserve their legacy for future resurrection in case of mass extinction. The DNA is collected, and the DNA code transcribed onto metal plates submerged in oil, preserving both the physical DNA strand and the genetic code itself in case the physical DNA is ever lost.
The DNA code can be fed into a sequencer that polymerizes nucleotides into the specific sequence to recreate and rebuild the DNA code to be fed into a template cell, to essentially clone a new organism. It becomes a common practice for pet owners to preserve the DNA of beloved pets, especially that of pets who have been spayed or neutered, by having their veterinarian take a DNA sample to get the DNA code preserved on a plate.
