The biggest plant on Earth has been discovered off Western Australia's coast! Posidonia australis, or ribbon weed, covers a massive 200 square kilometers, over three times the size of Manhattan. Researchers found that what seemed like multiple plants spread across 180 kilometers is actually one single plant! This seagrass provides a habitat for turtles, dolphins, dugongs, crabs, and fish, and plays a crucial role in fighting climate change by storing and capturing carbon at incredible rates.
