Journal Title: International Journal of Scientific Research and Management - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
This study “ Effect of Income on Environmental Sustainability in Nigeria ” is aimed at investigating whether sustainable environment is a maj or index of economic growth and to see if environmental sustainability affects economic growth; the study shall also establish whether Environmental Kuznets Curve exists in Nigeria. To achieve these, we have to check how the fo llowing variable per capita GDP affects the environment al factor Co 2 . The study then applied a simple regression analysis to test for the behavior of some variables. It was discovered that; environmental sustainability is a major indexes for sustainable development in Nigeria , On the other hand it was surprising to found that environmental degradation prom ote economic growth in Nigeria. The study al so proved that there is the present of Environmental Kuznets Curve in Nigeria.
