The Democratic Republic of Congo is a “geological scandal.” It is one of the richest country in the world. Its reserve in minerals is estimated to 24 trillion USD dollars without taking into consideration its national parks and its rivers. Yet paradoxically, the DRC is classified among the poorest country in the world. It has failed to take off economically. As the country strives to take off, it relies heavily on the exploitation of its natural resources with a corollary of environmental degradation. This paper will briefly highlight some of the background, analyses and critiques of the EKC theory. It will then attempt to apply the theory to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). We shall look at two key sectors, namely the mining and forestry sectors. The objective is to see if we can confirm the EKC hypothesis and see if a preliminary conclusion can be drawn about the connection between income and environmental quality in the DRC. The paper gives some recommendations.
