From the paris climate agreement, europe and china are expected to re affirm their commitments and expand collaborations. And what effect will brexit have on countries like south africa . We have an exciting report. Including some wine. It may be a little bit early for wine in the uk but not everywhere in the world. Welcome to World Business report. Im rachel horne. In a minute, well enter a parallel universe of Augmented Reality. But first, President Trump has said he will pull the United States out of the paris Climate Change accord, calling it an unfair agreement that would hamstring the American Economy while empowering the worst polluting nations. The announcement drew immediate criticism around the world. European leaders said the deal could not be renegotiated. But us Coal Producers welcomed the decision, while the move drew criticism from other Business Executives likejeff immelt, the chief executive of ge, who said it would hurt us companies ability to work abroad and inhibit innovation. Tesla ceo elon musk and walt disney boss robert iger said they would leave White House Advisory Councils after trumps move. Meanwhile, in a few hours, chinese and eu leaders will issue theirjoint statement on the paris climate agreement. China has already said it will honour its commitments on Climate Change. With me is james thornton, ceo of clientearth. Thank you for coming in. Lets start with the point that donald trump made, he believes the agreement is unfair, he believes there are bigger request of america and they need to do more than other countries like china or india and he believes following through with that would cost America Millions Injobs following through with that would cost america millions in jobs and following through with that would cost America Millions Injobs and in money. What is your reaction . As with so many things mr trump lives in an ultimate reality. What he has done his commit an act of vandalism against the greatest achievement of the 21st century, the Paris Agreement. It requires only involu nta ry agreement. It requires only involuntary moves on the part of countries. At americas state at the table, it would voluntarily do what most of america wants, 69 of the voters in the United States wanted to stay part of the agreement, the majority of citizens in every one of the 50 states of the us wanted to stay in, and since mr trump announced his move, 30 states have said they will continue their own plans to rip reduce Climate Change summit means most American People and the economy is going to go ahead despite what mr trump is doing. He is going to find out that the american president isnt an emperor and the country will stay connected with the world and keep reducing emissions. So you say he could have stayed at the table and decided to reduce the requirements that america had signed up to but if he does decide to go ahead and pull out, what timetable are we discussing . It takes four years under the agreement to leave what will happen in his america, at the federal level, will stall during his presidency right we have to remember that President Trump is it temporary blip, he is an unfortunate but temporary phenomena in the United States and america will rejoin. There is no doubt. America doesnt like to be left out of the party, it likes to be a leader, not a pariah. 0ther likes to be a leader, not a pariah. Other countries staying in, china and the eu, we are expecting a joint announcement today. What do you think we will hear . China and the eu will lead the world on reducing emissions. Ive met with the chinese Chief Negotiator and he is clear that china is reducing emissions for its own benefit. Thats true of every country. Reducing emissions is for the benefit of the economy and the people in every country and china knows that, the eu knows it. The sad thing is that the deal before the Paris Agreement was, when 0bama was president , the us and china led the world, the two biggest polluters joining to lead the world and he is leaving the party, the eu is stepping up and it is a good thing for europe but a bad thing for the us. Jim, thing for europe but a bad thing for the us. Jim, cso thing for europe but a bad thing for the us. Jim, ceo of clientearth, thank you. That is a story we will follow for many weeks. In a weeks time, the general election in the United Kingdom will be over. Some analysts say that the current Prime Minister, theresa may, wants it to be largely about the country leaving the european union. Its almost a year since the British Public voted in a referendum for brexit, and theres still a good deal of uncertainty as the start of negotiations looms. But how will all the deal making in europe affect companies in africa . The bbcs karen allen went to south africas western cape to find out more. South africas western cape seems an ocean away from britains political woes. Tourism is big business here, but so too is trade. So when the brexit negotiations began, begin, they will be pushing hard not to get cut adrift. Alan is back from a Lobbying Trip and is upbeat. Cut adrift. Alan is back from a Lobbying Trip and is upbeatm cut adrift. Alan is back from a Lobbying Trip and is upbeat. It will be about people than product. It will be much more between the two regions than the rest of the world. Soi regions than the rest of the world. So i think that the relevance is that we have to be seen as part of a tea m that we have to be seen as part of a team at the end of the day that is trying to find a deal. But it isnt just about britain. 100,000 germans live here. They are not only consuming the products that remind them of home but they also a running businesses, Exporting Goods back into europe and they are preparing to count the cost of brexit. This is the wine estate owned by Third Generation germans. 9. 8 billion us dollars worth of south african goods are destined for germany. Fair chunk of that is wine. And though far fewer bottles of the good stuff from here find their way into britain, those that do face the prospect of newly negotiated tariffs, possibly on less favourable terms. Now with an exit strategy, you then try to go to areas which are easier to ireland would be a market for us which would be easier because they are still in the eu. Relationship which has stood the test of time is about to be scrapped once the process of eu withdrawal begins. South africa could be bruised by a bad brexit deal, for what they are hoping for at the very least is a bit of stability. Now to Silicon Valley were Augmented Reality is taking centre stage this week and that is the term given to virtual images in post into the real world.

Push this button right here. 0k, the control panel. Push this button right here. Ok, i can see that. 0k. You can see the clever thing is even ifi you can see the clever thing is even if i move around the machine, we still have the instructions overlaid in the same place which means you could be much more precise than if it was just drawn on a normal screen. Chalk is made to work on all kinds of devices. Digital nowhere, like an hourglass, phones or tablet. Itd be available on fremium basis. You could use some levels for free.
