Got Grass?

What if one simple question could help save the planet? Join Phoebe as she heads to the Maldives to ask the difficult question - can travel to these islands ever really be sustainable? Learn about the unsung hero of marine conservation: underwater seagrass, which so far has been ruthlessly removed in pursuit of the 'perfect' image of paradise despite it capturing 60 times more carbon than terrestrial forests and how one resort is working to save it and get others on board. Also coming up: TV Bushcraft Expert Ray Mears talks about the importance of sound on our travels; learn how to pass time when weatherbound in a resort or hotel; discover 10 of the most endangered species and where to find them - plus how to help conservation efforts to save them; meet the woman on a mission to rewild a great swathe of South Africa; find your sole mate - with our guide to multi-activity sandals and learn all about our Wander Woman of the Month - the unsung conservationist who stared down the barrel of a gun to try to save the Mississippi - Mary Hannah Gibbs.
