Abstract :
This paper examines the stochastic convergence of carbon dioxide emissions in Malaysia relative to the values of six other regions with different income and development levels. Different unit-root tests are applied to detect the stochastic convergence of relative carbon dioxide emissions series. The results reveal evidences on the convergence of carbon dioxide emissions in Malaysia.
