Bu çalışmanın temel hedefi çevre kirliliğinin azaltılmasında kurumsal yapının oynadığı rolün vurgulanmasıdır. Ayrıca çalışmanın bu hedefinin yanında kirlilik sığınağı hipotezi de test edilmektedir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda E7 ülkeleri için 2002-2021 dönemini kapsayan ampirik bir analiz yapılmaktadır. Çalışmanın analiz sürecinde yatay kesit bağımlılığının varlığı ve eğim homojenliği test edilmiştir. Analiz sürecinde bu durumları göz önünde bulunduran AMG ve Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel nedensellik teknikleri kullanılmıştır. AMG tekniği ile yapılan analizde E7 ülkelerinin tümünü kapsayan panelin geneli için ve ülke bazlı tahminci sonuçlarına yer verilmektedir. Çalışmada yapılan analiz sonuçları özetlenecek olursa: i) Panelin geneli ve Brezilya, Çin, Hindistan, Meksika, Türkiye için kanun ve kural üstünlüğünün karbondioksit emisyonun azalttığı tespit edilmektedir. ii) Hindistan, Türkiye ve panelin geneli için kirlilik sığınağı hipotezi kabul edilmektedir. iii) Son olarak karbondioksit emisyonu ve kurumsal yapı, ekonomik büyüme, enerji üretimi arasında çift yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu, doğrudan yabancı yatırımlarlaysa tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
