Abstract
The relation between foreign direct investment and carbon emission together with globalized economic structure has become an important research area. Hence, the aim of this study is to investigate aspects of how increase in foreign direct investments is affecting carbon emission. In the application, the period 1970-2010 was examined and firstly, foreign direct investments are observed casual of carbon emission via linear and nonlinear causality tests. Secondly, long-term integration between these two variables is determined by cointegration test with two structural breaks. Lastly, the aspects of this relation are specified with the FMOLS and CCR cointegration estimators. As findings, the Pollution Halo Hypothesis which claims increase in foreign direct investments is parallel with decrease in carbon emission, is valid for United States, France and United Kingdom; on the other hand, the Pollution Haven Hypothesis which accepts these increased investments raise environment and air pollution, is valid only for Canada
