Sažetak
Environmental pollution has become the matter of concern all
over the world with the increase in urbanization, transport, industrialization
and several other factors. The researcher has therefore
designed this study to investigate the impact of urbanization,
research and development R&D expenditure, infrastructure development
and real income on the emission of carbon dioxide in
Asian countries. The data collection process involved six Asian
countries from 1997 and ending 2019. The panel data estimation
and analysis tools and techniques were applied on the collected
data and the results were obtained. The results of regression estimation
suggest that as per MG estimator, all the variables have
significant and positive impact on CO2 emission but infrastructure
development has insignificant impact. In case of FMOLS, again all
the variables have significant and positive impact on CO2 emission
but infrastructure development has insignificant impact.
However, in case of DOLS, all the variables have shown significant
impact on CO2 emission. In the last, DK estimator indicates that
urbanization, real income and population density have significant
and positive impact on CO2 emission but R&D expenditure and
infrastructure development has insignificant impact. In this way,
the impacts of all independent and control variables on CO2 emission
were estimated.
