Examining the Factors Affecting CO2 Emissions from Road Transportation in Malaysia

<p>Increased economic growth and transportation have led to a great increase in carbon emission in Malaysia. This paper investigates the factors such as distance travel (DT), fuel efficiency (FE), fuel price (FP) and fuel consumption as determinants of carbon emission from road transportation...
