Abstract :This study is an attempt to measure the validity of the inverted U-shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve through empirical treatment with the help of ARDL bound test and vector error correction model. The study then aims to find whether there is a long-term relationship between economic growth and environmental pollution. In the literature, the methodology is used by different researchers for different countries. The findings, in general, endorse the presence of inverted U association between growth of the economy and carbon emissions releases. Given this framework, the need for empirical assessment becomes increasingly relevant in partial contribution to policy innovations for the purpose of pollution reduction. The findings for the study supports environmental Kuznets curve in Turkey for the period of 1960-2013.Keywords : Carbon Emission, Industrial Pollutants, ARDL Model.
