Abstract
Energy as one of the most important factors of production, as well as one of the most important marginal products, has effential role in trade and economic development.The importance of energy has increased after the two oil crises in 1970’s. The relationship between energy and trade is an important topic to study for several reasons. If energy consumption is found to Granger cause exports or imports, then any reductions in energy consumption, coming from say energy conservation polices, will reduce exports or imports and lessen the benefits of trade. Energy conservation policies which reduce energy consumption will offset trade liberalization policies designed to promote economic growth. This places energy conservation policies at odds with trade liberalization policies.In this regard, the impact of trade on energy consumption through energy applications in the production process of import and export goods and their transportation is included. This study uses panel data to investigat effect of trade on energy consumption in D8 countries (Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan and Turkey) during the years 1990 to 2014. The results indicat that foreign trade has a significant and positive impact on energy consumption. The findings show a significant and negative impact of energy prices on energy use.

Abstract
Although many factors in economic growth and development are scientific, but the global impact and energy consumption have a prominent role in the economy according to the evidence. In the meantime, we should not ignore the consequences of environmental destruction. In the present study, the effect of uncertainty of globalization and energy consumption on CO2 gas emission has been investigated with the help of fuzzy regression model with symmetric and asymmetric coefficient for the time period of 1369-1400. According to the average scale of the phased vessel model, the three boundaries and the bottom are calculated for each of the investigated changes under different uncertainty conditions using the particle swarm algorithm. Examining the effect of the limits related to the uncertainty of globalization and energy consumption on the amount of CO2 gas emissions indicates that as the degree of membership approaches 0.1 to the degree of membership 0.9, first, the amount of CO2 gas emissions up to be Membership increased by 0.4 and then decreased in a downward trend of CO2 emissions. This impressive trend is also true for the middle and lower limits. From this, it can be stated that the effect of the uncertainty of energy consumption on the amount of CO2 emissions is similar to an inverted U. It is noteworthy that the trend of energy consumption compared to globalization increases the amount of CO2 emissions, so it can be said that the amount of CO2 emissions is not the result of the refugee hypothesis.

Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of factors affecting the ecological footprint with an emphasis on the role of energy consumption intensity in Iran using the Vector Autoregression Model with Variable Parameters Over Time (TVP-VAR). The ecological footprint reflects the environmental constraints of communities and the extent to which the environment is destroyed by exceeding these limitations. Due to the increasing intensity of energy consumption, Iran is faced with a significant ecological footprint in its economic activities, which requires the root causes of the factors affecting it. Other research variables include the degree of urbanization, human development, financial development, trade openness, and GDP per capita in the period from 1990 to 2021. The results show that increasing the intensity of energy consumption causes a positive and significant increase over time on the ecological footprint. The effect of other research variables on the ecological footprint was also in accordance with theoretical expectations. These findings emphasize that the type and source of energy consumed, as well as the production processes, play an important role in this relationship. Also, the analyses show that environmental sustainability decreases with increasing energy consumption and the ecological footprint of
