In this paper we survey the main determinants of CO2 emission in the Iranian provinces. For this purpose first we provide per capita Co2 emission as a criterion of Environmental pollution and energy intensity in 28 provinces of Iran within 2003-2007, then the impact of population, urbanization, energy intensity and per capita income on the environmental degradation are investigated by panel data model. The results revealed that population; urbanization, energy intensity, and per capita income have positive and significant effect on co2 emission in the Iranian provinces.
