Abstract: Asian countries are facing environmental degradation issue which is the result of non-renewable energy usage for growth however this issue cannot be unnoticed. This study is an effort to highlight the causes for an emerging issue of environmental degradation in selected Asian economies. The research findings demonstrate that urban population, energy consumption and economic growth increases carbon emission CO2 (i.e., environmental degradation) in Asian countries. It is suggested that strategy formulation in Asian economies should implement and indorse renewable energy sources in order to meet up the high energy demand and to reduce CO2 emissions for certain sustainable economic development in Asian countries.
