An artist's rendition of the impacts of industrial seaweed farming underwater.

Picture the scene: it’s late 2026 and you’re crossing the Atlantic Ocean. You gaze down at the sea lapping gently at the sides of your ship - but instead of clear seawater, you find that you are surrounded by invasive seaweed, stretching as far as the eye can see, in all directions. You’ve ventured into a vast Sargassum giga-farm, extending from horizon to horizon, covering an area the size of a country.
