The current national economic accounting system don't correctly measure the value of the natural resources and ecological environment and it doesn't reflect the loss of the resources and the environment caused by the economic activities. Accompanied by a series of subsistence crisis and resources crisis, more and more people realize that the traditional GDP should be revised for its limitations. The GDP should include the value of the environment and resource, and reflect the improvement of the human well-being. In this background, the concept of green GDP emerged.At the present stage, the research work about the green GDP has launched in the country and province except the county. The county unit is basic source of the statistical data. Intra-county economics is very important to our national economic system. The study of the County of green GDP accounting system has significance to the sustainable development of the economy. The development of the accounting of the green GDP has a great significance. The paper build the county green GDP accounting system, based on the SEEA accounting system. The system mainly includes two parts. The paper constructs the framework of the green GDP accounting system in the first part, including the accounting index. The other part is mainly to discuss the questions how to choose the proper method for the valuation method. The ideas about construction of accounting system are as follows: accounting on natural resources in physical quantity and the magnitude of valueâ†'accounting on environment in physical quantity and the magnitude of valueâ†'Environmental Accountsâ†'accounting on green GDP. Through the establishment of the Intra-county Green GDP accounting system, we want to find the bonding point between environment protection and resources to promote the sustainable development of county economy.The mainly difficulty in the natural resource and environment accounting is that how to weigh their value. Experts and scholars made a lot of accounting methods, but they are filled with controversy. In this paper, I summarize and evaluate natural resources and environmental valuation methods used mostly in the world.We use the Intra-county Green GDP accounting system that we have constructed and choose the proper valuation method on the green GDP accounting of Jingxing mining area through the empirical analysis. We can get the data of green GDP that was adjusted. The paper gets the conclusions through comparative analysis. The government of Jingxing mining area wants to transform its development model of economic for its mining resource is depleted gradually. They achieved some aims. However, the dependence on the resource and environment is still relatively strong and especially its environment was severely deteriorated. The development model of economic was built on the basis of unsustainable development. So we give the suggestion to resolve those problems appeared at Jingxing mining area. The form of the economic growth in the Mining area must be changed, following the road to sustainable development.
