Rare footage of the world s biggest seagrass meadow2021|03:07 Beneath the waves, in a remote corner of the Indian Ocean, is the top of a mountain. Rising from the seabed thousands of meters below, it is the Saya de Malha bank. Scientists believe it s home to the largest seagrass meadow in the world - carpeting an area the size of Switzerland. That s important because this vast aquatic wilderness of carbon-dioxide capturing plants could play a crucial role in tackling climate change. It s the reason the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise, with a team of scientists on board, navigated to the isolated spot - roughly located between the Seychelles and Mauritius. But getting there wasn t easy. The waters are relatively uncharted, and the wildly varying depths create, as University of Exeter ecology lecturer Dr Kirstin Thompson describes it, a strange place .
