Abstract

Economic growth is the main goal of many government's economic policies. However, rapid economic growth usually causes serious losses to the environment (due to the increasing use of natural resources). Thus, there is a potential conflict between economic growth and the environmental policy. Therefore, the subject of conflict between economic growth and environmental quality became gradually one of the topics discussed in the field of environmental economics. In this study, we use Data Envelopment Analysis method (DEA) for the performance of the environment to develop Islamic countries (D8). During the period of 1980-2014 and calculated data was used to investigate the relationship between the performance of the environment and the per capita income information related to the countries of different economic sites such as the world bank (Data , Economy watch and … ). The results show that the average efficiency of the environment D8 countries increased at a rate of 1/02. This increases the efficiency of technology at the rate of 021/1 and 998/0 of technical performance. Technical performance is raised because of the increase in performance management (1) and scale efficiency (0 / 998). The growth of environmental performance in Iran is 1/016 in fifth grade after Malaysia (1/053), Indonesia (1/042), Nigeria (1/036), and Turkey (1/025).
