Abstract

The goal of this study was to look at the effects  of CO2 emissions on India's and China's economic growth.  CO2 emissions appear to be increasing in both India and  China, according to preliminary data analysis. In addition,  both countries' carbon emissions from electricity and heat  production have recently decreased, while India's reduction  has been greater than China's. India's CO2 emissions from  the use of gaseous fuels are also higher than China's. China,  on the other hand, emits more CO2 than India from  manufacturing and building. The findings also revealed that  while both India and China's carbon intensity increased  over time, China's was higher. Carbon emissions have a  negative and significant relationship with India and China's  economic growth, according to the results of correlation  and regression research. We conclude that lowering carbon  emissions is crucial for the country's well-being based on  these findings. As a result, the government should come up  with environmentally friendly measures for reducing carbon  emissions. Environmental protection is a long-term process  that necessitates constant planning, government laws, and  public and private sector cooperation.
