Abstract

The issue between economic growth and the environment is interesting to be studied further. Deforestation is one of the greatest environmental issues requiring serious public concern. This study examines the effect of gross domestic product per capita, agricultural land, exports and foreign direct investment to deforestation in the 12 OIC member countries over 14 years from 1997-2014 using an Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) with Generalized to Specific Models (GTSM) technique. The results showed that in a long-run gross domestic product per capita, export, foreign direct investment, and agricultural land have a significant effect. Meanwhile, in short-run agricultural land and exports showed significantly at a statistical level.
