We'll look at the factors that have sparked protests in Iran and assess what they might mean for the country's leaders. As Beijing bans millions of tonnes of plastic waste from being imported, we hear how the decision could cause chaos for roadside collections in the UK. And should employees get time off work when they get a new pet? More and more companies are introducing 'paw-ternity' leave. Rob Young is joined by Andrew Peaple from the Wall Street Journal, in Hong Kong, and Bridget Bodnar, from US public radio programme Marketplace, in Los Angeles.
