One xs civilization v background series#

With the continuous acceleration of urbanization in most countries around the world, a series of problems such as environmental degradation and human-land conflicts have emerged gradually, with corresponding countermeasures successively introduced by each country ( Pata., 2018). Due to its unique land-based development model, China has become the fastest growing economy in the world over the past 30 years however, as China’s economic development stage changes, the unsustainability of the traditional land use model has become increasingly apparent ( Liu S Y et al., 2020). In the early stage, countries in the world tend to promote national economic growth while overlooking environmental pollution. Urban land use efficiency is an important factor affecting urban sustainable development and high-quality economic development.

Therefore, it is necessary to summarize the successful experience of ecological civilization pilot demonstration area construction and fully consider differential policies, so as to maximize the policy dividends while strengthening regional linkage, and further contribute to national popularization of this policy. 4) Ecological civilization pilot demonstration area construction has certain heterogeneity in its effect on ULGUE in different regions and cities, with a more significant promoting effect for non-eastern regions, non-resource-based cities, and non-key cities of environmental protection. 3) Ecological civilization pilot demonstration area construction has significant positive spillover effects on the ULGUE of neighboring cities, which are related to the urban characteristics such as geographical location, resource endowment, and environmental protection intensity. 2) Ecological civilization pilot demonstration area construction has significantly improved the ULGUE of pilot cities by about 0.12% relative to that of non-pilot cities, which was validated by the robustness test.

From 2006 to 2019, the national mean value of ULGUE increases from 0.5284 to 0.6439, with an increase rate of 21.86% in the spatial dimension, ULGUE is characterized by a pattern of eastern > national > central > western. The results show that: 1) In terms of spatio-temporal changes, ULGUE shows a steady upward trend with time.

This study measures the ULGUE of 263 cities in China at the prefecture or above level, clarifies its spatio-temporal changes, investigates the effect of ecological civilization pilot demonstration area construction on ULGUE with the multi-period PSM-DID model and spatial Durbin difference model, and evaluates the spatial spillover effect of the policy. Improvement of urban land green use efficiency (ULGUE) in the context of sustained economic growth is a major challenge for the regional sustainable development and ecological civilization construction in China. 3School of Public Administration, Central China Normal University, Wuhan, China.2College of Agricultural Economics and Technology, Jiujiang Vocational University, Jiujiang, China.1Hubei Institute of Economic and Social Development, Central China Normal University, Wuhan, China.Shaojie Li 1, Duoduo Wang 2 and Qin Wu 3*
