In the background of increasing fierce contradictions between environmental problems and economic development, Environmental Industry, as a new type of industry, not only contributes to economic growth with its benefits, but also weakens environmental pressure, which has provided a possibility of sustainable development for both economy as well as environment. With the method of historical literature research, contents analysis, comparison research etc, the thesis tries to study the relationship between Environmental Industry and economic development, analyze the requirements and confining factors to the development of Environmental Industry, demand the government' s participation and put forward some policy suggestions.The thesis encompasses three parts. The first part is an introduction, generally stating some related economic theory concerning Environmental Industry. It mainly analyzes the primary content of the development of Chinese Environmental Industry from three aspects, namely the background of the appearance of Environmental Industry, the concept of Environmental Industry, and the positioning of Environmental Industry. The second part analyzes the present and futuresituations of Environmental Industry, respectively from three angles, the relationship between Environmental Industry and economic development, the factors confining the development of Environmental Industry, and the potentiality of Environmental Industry. The third part is the most significant one and also the part of conclusion. Applying the theory of "Voting Model of Medium Income-Leveled Beings " of Public Economics and some related theory of Environmental Economics, the passage makes a conclusion that government should help those of medium income level to increase their income so as to ask for better environmental quality, which will promote the development of Environmental Industry. This way of thinking differs from that of government' s directly investing in Environmental Industry. However, it requires mutual functions of both the government interference and market mechanism so that the persons of medium income level may arrive at more productive factors, which is possible for them to get more income according to the principle of "Allocation Based on Productive Factors" . In that case, the Environmental Industry can be improved indirectly. In the long run, it is in essence a sustainable way to push forward the development of Environmental Industry and the overall economy.
