Summary: | Environmental degradation is downturn of the environment through the depletion of resources such as air, water and soil. This can lead to the destruction of ecosystems and extinction of the threatening wildlife, loss of biodiversity, depletion of ozone layer and economic impacted throughout of it. In this study, carbon dioxide emission react as the dependent variable while agriculture value added, manufacturing value added, service value added and gross fixed capital accumulation are the independent variables. This study aiming to find the determinants of environmental degradation in Malaysia by using the data between the year of 1970 until 2013, found out that all the dependent variables has one long run effects towards the dependent variables through econometric analysis. However, there is no short-run relationship between the dependent and independent variables. |
