Introduction Question in this struggle for a change in climate and an emergency need for sustainable energy, we ask ourselves one of the biggest questions: whether renewable energy will eventually substitute oil . Oil was the very corner of the world's economy for years and rightfully powers everything, from cars and airplanes to factories and homes, with unprecedented power output.

Even as the growth in electric vehicle makes rapid strides and technology pushes for more and more renewable sources, still, oil will be required in abundance till 2050. The bottom line is that ExxonMobil believes that by mid-century...

The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is one of the world’s largest free trade agreements (FTAs), comprising 15 nations, including major economic powerhouses like China, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. Through the years, RCEP has been devoted to trading better, increasing economic unity, and diminishing the tariffs throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Back in 2019, India had a crucial choice to make: to be a part of the wide economic bloc or to be out of it? After careful consideration, India chose the latter. Then, the negotiations were halted by India according to the apprehension of local industries which might face the negative economic impact and the inflow of too many Chinese products. However, as we move further into 2024, the question arises again: should India reconsider its decision to join RCEP?
