 Nowadays air pollution as an important issue affects human health and economics phenomenon. In this study the relationship between economic growth and air pollution in ed provinces, has studied by use of Pollutant Standard Index. Results indicated that there is positive and significant relation between air pollution and economic growth in ed provinces. But Tehran and Khozestan and Khorasan Razavi provinces negatively affected. Results show that during the considered period, PSI as an indicator of environmental problem keeps on growing in time as long as the products in ed provinces keeps on growing. In other words, economic growth can't solve environmental problem during a time.
