It was a hard-fought battle for the US Senate seat left vacant by Jeff Sessions, and dominated by allegations of sexual misconduct against the Republican candidate, Roy Moore. We get the latest from local reporter Chip Brownlee. Plus, we hear what the IT company Dell is doing to tackle plastic pollution. Fergus Nicoll is joined throughout the programme by Alexander Kaufman, a Business and Environment reporter with the Huffington Post in New York, and investment director Catherine Yeung in Hong Kong.
