The Impact Of Population Mobility And Industrial Restructuring On Shanghai's Green GDP

Green GDP is the GDP obtained upon deducting cost of resource depletion and environmental damage caused by economic development,which is designed for overcoming deficiency of the traditional GDP in terms of sustainable development measurement.This paper uses green GDP instead of traditional GDP as a measure of green and healthy economic development,and makes research on the relationship among population mobility,industrial structure transformation and green GDP with structural vector auto regression(SVAR)model from 2000 to 2014 in Shanghai.And this paper uses the vector error correction(VEC)model to study the leading role of the Shanghai in promoting the development of green GDP of Jiangsu province and Zhejiang province.The estimation results indicate that: 1,population mobility in a short time,inhibits the development of green GDP,but in the long run the effect will gradually disappear.2,population mobility can promote industrial structure transformation in the short term.However,industrial structure transformation will be stabilized upon stability of population structure over time.3,population mobility plays a more important role than industrial structure transformation in Shanghai green GDP increment.4,the development of green economy in Shanghai can promote the development of green economy in Jiangsu Province and Zhejiang Province: In the other conditions remain unchanged,the Shanghai green GDP for each additional 1 percentage point,Jiangsu Province,the average green GDP increased 0.1212 percentage points,while the green GDP in Zhejiang Province increased by an average of 0.472 percentage points.
