This research concluded estimation of (COED) caused by Air pollution in Kirkuk governorate north of Iraq (one of the biggest oil production cities in Iraq), the same scientific method adopted by World Bank was applied in this research. The results showed that (COED) for Air pollution in Kirkuk equal to 68.8 billion I.Q.D which represent 12% of Kirkuk (GDB) for 2013.
