Abstarct: Among the countries of the world, the concern about environmental pollution is more severe in single-product countries such as oil-rich countries that are mainly dependent on the export of a certain type of raw materials. So that the average growth rate of carbon dioxide emissions in some oil-rich countries is higher than the global average. On the one hand, due to their economic dependence on oil, these countries extract their fossil and mineral resources for domestic consumption as well as export, which is an important factor in the emission of pollution. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine the impact of globalization, energy consumption and economic growth in OPEC member countries during the period 2006-2022 using the generalized method of moments (GMM). According to the results obtained, the first pause in carbon dioxide emissions had a positive and significant effect on itself. So that carbon dioxide emissions in the previous period increased carbon dioxide emissions in the current period by 1.323%. Globalization has had a positive and significant effect on carbon dioxide emissions. So that a one percent increase in globalization has caused a 0.021 percent increase in carbon dioxide. Renewable energy consumption has had a negative and significant effect on carbon dioxide emissions. So that a one percent increase in renewable energy consumption has caused a 0.16 percent decrease in carbon dioxide emissions. Gross domestic product has had a positive and significant effect on carbon dioxide emissions. With a one percent increase in GDP, carbon dioxide emissions have increased by 0.013 percent. Urban population has had a positive and significant effect on carbon dioxide emissions. So that with a one percent increase in urban population, carbon dioxide emissions have increased by 0.03 percent. Government spending has had a negative and significant effect on carbon dioxide emissions. A one percent increase in government spending has caused a 0.11 percent increase in carbon dioxide emissions. Therefore, in these countries, by implementing constructive policies to support innovation in low-carbon technologies and providing financial incentives for their adoption, it can be effective in reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
