| Economic development depends on environmental systems,environmental problems caused by economic development has becomethe focus of attention of the community. How to reduce environmentalpollution, change the mode of economic development, and the nationaleconomy on a path of sustainable development, has become a major issuefor society as a whole to reflect together on. The core essence ofsustainable development is the development of the national economy inthe environment can carry that economic development must be basedenvironment bearing capacity constraints.Therefore, the study andmeasurement of a country’s ecological carrying capacity in the strategy ofsustainable development of great significance.In this paper, the global ecological footprint accounts based on adetailed analysis of30years of reform and opening up, China’s ecologicalenvironment. For the study of the relationship between economicdevelopment and environmental carrying capacity of the sector in theChinese input-output tables, reclassified, the ecological footprint asenvironmental inputs (ecological land input) added to the input-outputtable in the preparation of the environmental and economic input-outputtables. The table contains a total of seven sectors: agriculture, forestry,animal husbandry, fisheries, construction, industry and services, the ecological footprint of cropland, forest land, grazing land, fishing grounds,building land and carbon uptake land correspond to agriculture, forestry,animal husbandry, fisheries, construction and industrial sectors; serviceproducts based on the consumption of goods, services there is onlyindirect ecological footprint, environmental and economic input-outputtable, corresponding to the service sector ecological demand for landzero.Environmental and economic input-output table based on the use oftraditional input-output coefficients, we calculated the the variousdepartments ecological land into direct consumption coefficient andcomplete consumption coefficient, seven departments of ecological landdemand. Focuses on the needs of human ecology, ecological footprint andecological carrying capacity reflects the environment to meet humanneeds capacity. The analysis shows that China’s reform and opening up30years has been in a state of ecological deficit, ecological footprint isgreater than the ecological carrying capacity, which means that theecological demand is greater than the supply of ecological. Analysis ofthe ecological changes in demand for economic development, economic-environmental input-output model, and on this basis, the increase of theecological needs of China’s economic output, value added and end-use,China’s national economic output in the environmental carrying capacityconstraints and end-use. |
