Can Green Economy and Ecological Welfare Achieve Synergistic Development? The Perspective of the Two Mountains Theory

Lindong Ma et al.

Summary: China's rapid economic growth and severe environmental problems have significantly impacted the country's sustainable development and ecological welfare improvement. This study examines the relationship between these factors and explores influencing factors in order to address issues surrounding green economic progress and ecological welfare enhancement. Using the undesirable slack-based measure (SBM) model, the ecological welfare performance and green economic efficiency of 11 cities in Zhejiang Province, China, were measured from 2000 to 2019. The findings reveal a U-shaped trend in the development of urban green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance, with initial decline followed by improvement. The coupling coordination degree between green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance shows an overall increasing trend, indicating advanced progress in most cities during the study period. Factors such as urbanization level, industrial structure, and government investment play a positive role in regional coordinated development, while industrialization degree and opening level have a negative impact. The Two Mountains theory is found to be beneficial to improving regional urban green economic efficiency and ecological welfare performance, both in theory and practice. Based on these findings, suggestions for utilizing preferential policies and informatization means are proposed to promote regional coordinated development.

Assessment of ecological well-being performance and its spatial correlation analysis in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration

Meijun Xia et al.

Summary: This paper presents an innovative approach to comprehensively evaluate the ecological well-being performance (EWP) in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration (BTH) using a network perspective. The study reveals the complex interactions of EWP and explores its spatial correlation network structure. The research findings show a positive trend of improvement in EWP, with the spatial correlation patterns indicating balanced development in the ecological-economic transformation stage and imbalances in the economic well-being transformation stage.

Spatial and Temporal Evolution and Driving Factors of Urban Ecological Well-Being Performance in China

Jing Bian et al.

Summary: Extensive development has led to the decline of ecological well-being, and it is necessary to improve the urban ecological well-being performance (EWP). This paper evaluates the EWP of 285 Chinese prefecture level cities from 2011 to 2017 using the Super-slack-based measure (Super-SBM) model. The findings suggest that economic development level and technological progress have positive impacts on the EWP, while urbanization level, economic extroversion, and industrial structure have negative impacts on the EWP.

The effect of economic development on carbon intensity of human well-being: Evidence from spatial econometric analyses

Shengyun Wang et al.

Summary: This study examines the carbon intensity of human well-being and its spatial evolution using panel data from 114 nations (or regions) from 1980 to 2014. The findings highlight the significant decline in carbon intensity, with variations between high-high and low-low clusters, as well as the disparities between developed and developing nations. Economic development, energy consumption, trade, and mortality rate increase carbon intensity, while industrialization and capital accumulation reduce it. Furthermore, there are regional heterogeneities in the drivers of carbon intensity, with Latin American developing countries showing the greatest impact from economic development. The study also identifies prominent spatial spillover effects on the factors influencing the carbon intensity of human well-being.

Spatial Differences of Ecological Well-Being Performance in the Poyang Lake Area at the Local Level

Shengyun Wang et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the ecological well-being performance (EWP) of the Poyang Lake region in China using the super-efficiency slack-based measure (Super-NSBM) model and DEA window analysis. The results show that while there has been an improving trend in EWP, the overall level is still low due to the incongruity between ecological and economic development.

Assessing the Impact of Green Transformation on Ecological Well-Being Performance: A Case Study of 78 Cities in Western China

Chuansheng Wu et al.

Summary: This research examines the impact of green transformation on ecological well-being performance (EWP) using panel data from 78 prefecture-level cities in western China. The results demonstrate that green transformation can improve EWP in local and nearby cities in the western region. Industrial solid waste utilization, harm-less treatment rate of domestic waste, savings level, and R&D expenditure have a positive effect on EWP, while soot emission and consumption levels impede EWP advancement.

Spatio-Temporal Differentiation and Driving Mechanism of the Resource Curse of the Cultivated Land in Main Agricultural Production Regions: A Case Study of Jianghan Plain, Central China

Yuanyuan Zhu et al.

Summary: This study introduced the resource curse theory to investigate the curse phenomenon and influencing factors of cultivated land resources, conducting a spatiotemporal evaluation in China's Jianghan Plain. The results showed a decreasing trend in the curse coefficient of cultivated land resources, with varying influencing factors and spatial interactions in different cursed areas.

Spatio-Temporal Differentiation Mode and Threshold Effect of Yangtze River Delta Urban Ecological Well-Being Performance Based on Network DEA

Meijuan Hu et al.

Summary: The study found that urban ecological well-being performance in the Yangtze River Delta region has been steadily improving in recent years, with most cities making the transition from low to higher performance levels. However, there is a clear spatial mismatch between urban economic development levels and ecological well-being performance.

Research on Spatial Unbalance and Influencing Factors of Ecological Well-Being Performance in China

Shengyun Wang et al.

Summary: This study measures the ecological well-being performance (EWP) of 30 Chinese provinces or cities and analyzes its spatial and temporal evolution characteristics. The results show significant differences in EWP among provinces in China, with urbanization significantly enhancing EWP. Reducing inter-regional differences is key to mitigating regional imbalances in China.
