The full force of nature is being unleashed on the northern Caribbean, with hurricanes Irma and now Jose causing mass destruction. In the United States, Florida is getting ready for the impact. We find out what preparations are being made from Philip Stoddard, mayor of South Miami. And we hear from Dr Swenja Surminski, expert on disaster risk reduction at the London School of Economics. Also in the programme, we find out about carmaker Jaguar Land Rover's plan to electrify its model range by 2020. Plus we look back at all the week's big business stories with Matt Campbell from Bloomberg, and Jamie Heller of the Wall Street Journal. And China says 'non' to French cheese. There is no official reason, but importers and diplomats say it's a hygiene issue. We talk to Patricia Michelson, owner of La Fromagerie in London, to get her reaction. Roger Hearing is joined on the programme by Clive Hunton from ABC News Australia, who is in Canberra. (Picture: A house in Barbuda, severely damaged by Hurricane Irma. Credit: Laura Bicker)
