This paper deals with the validity of Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis for 18 OECD countries in the 1960-2008 period. Due to the fact that for these countries the relationship between environmental pollution and economic growth is seen as a result of Breitung Panel unit root test and panel cointegration tests, it is concluded that the given hypothesis is valid in the long term. This relationship of short and long-term is estimated with by means of panel error correction model
