The increase in carbon emissions is the most important cause of environmental pollution The carbon emission rates has a specific effect on many environmental factors, especially climate change. It is an important fact to increase the share of environmental technologies in order to reduce carbon emissions and prevent global warming in countries. With their economic performance, high growth rate, industrialization policies and efforts, carbon emissions in BRICS and MIST countries are also high. Within the scope of the study, the relationship between CO2 emission and emission determining factors for MIST and BRICS countries, second generation panel data analysis estimation methods has been researched between 1990-2018. According to the results obtained; In both country groups, the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis is valid. While GDP per capita increases by 1.9% in MIST countries, this increase is 1.1% in BRICS countries. The effect of globalization; While it was positive and significant in BRICS countries, it was negative and significant in MIST countries. Energy use increases the carbon emissions of both country groups. In MIST countries, openness is meaningless, whereas in BRICS countries, openness reduces carbon emissions.
