In recent years, environmental problems have started to be the center of researchers and practitioners attention with the increase of environmental pollution. The study aims to reveal the relationship between CO2 emission and export diversity and economic growth. For this purpose, BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) countries were tested with panel data analysis in the period 2002-2014. According to empirical findings, export diversity and economic growth positively affect CO2 emissions.

Anahtar Kelimeler

co2 emissions, export diversification, economic growth

İhracat Çeşitliliği ve Ekonomik Büyümenin Karbon Emisyonu Üzerindeki Etkileri: BRICS Ülkeleri Üzerine Bir Çalışma

Öz

Son dönemlerde çevre kirliliğinin artması ile birlikte çevresel sorunlar araştırmacıların ve uygulayıcıların ilgi odağı olmaya başlamıştır. Bununla birlikte çalışmanın amacı ihracat çeşitliliği, ekonomik büyüme ve CO2 emisyonu ilişkisini ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaç ile 2002- 2014 dönemi içerisinde BRICS ( Brezilya, Rusya, Hindistan, Çin ve Güney Afrika ) ülkeleri panel veri analizi ile test edilmiştir. Ampirik bulgulara göre, ihracat çeşitliliği, ekonomik büyüme ve CO2 emisyonunu pozitif yönde etkilemektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

co2 emisyonu, ihracat çeşitliliği, ekonomik büyüme
