We found that electric power per capita, energy use, and gross domestic product have positive influences on per capita CO<span class="s1"><sub>2</sub> </span>emissions in Southeast Asia. However, population and renewable energy consumption negatively affect per capita CO<sub><span class="s1">2 </span></sub>emissions in this region. Our results also addressed that per capita CO<sub><span class="s1">2 </span></sub>emissions of Indonesia and Viet Nam are higher than that of other countries in the region. Lastly, policies are recommended to reduce CO<sub><span class="s1">2 </span></sub>emissions and protect the environment in Southeast Asia, including improvement of energy efficiency of countries in the region, implementation of the Project in Clean Energy Investments, reduction of fuel and CO<sub><span class="s1">2 </span></sub>emissions applied to light duty vehicles and high duty vehicles, exploitation of advantages in exporting greenhouse gas emissions, and cooperation among countries in the region in order to reduce emissions.</p><p class="p1"><strong>DOWNLOAD HISTORY</strong> | This article has been downloaded 250 times in Digital Commons before migrating into this platform.</p> ER -
