World Business Report

Available for over a year

Tourism is taking a hit as an intense heatwave grips Europe. Several countries have issued red weather alerts as temperatures soar. We hear from tourists and a tour guide sweating it out in Paris. Oil prices have fallen to their lowest point since the war began. But when will consumers feel it? Around the world, gamers are bracing to spend $80 on Grand Theft Auto VI. And we speak to the COO of Patreon on why the creator economy is booming and who's actually making money from it? Presenter: Leanna Byrne Producers: Rob Cave and Niamh Mc Dermott (Picture: People use umbrellas to shade from the sun in front of the Eiffel Tower. Credit: REUTERS/Abdul Saboor)
