| In recent years, the atmospheric particulate pollution is getting worse in Harbin. The annual days do not meet air quality standard are increasing basically, and the daily life of urban residents, transportation, health and economic development of the city are affected in different degrees. With the growing effects, the people, the government and the research departments become to pay more attention to atmospheric particulate matter pollution. Because lack research of the economics loss of health hazards in Harbin, this paper will evaluate the economic losses of health hazards of atmospheric particulate pollution in Harbin, the research contents are as follows.Based on the comprehensive analysis of the sources, composition and change trend of atmospheric particulate, this paper found out the problems of the pollution of atmospheric in Harbin. Then, choose the most representative index pollution factors, health outcomes, the exposed population, use the method of epidemiology to evaluate the city residents health hazards caused by atmospheric particulate pollution. Estimate the relationship between the atmospheric particulate pollution factors and the health damage affected by atmospheric particulate pollution; monetize all the health damages affected by atmospheric particulate pollution, to calculate the economic loss of related health outcomes. Finally, this paper choose atmospheric particulate pollution factors, calculate the comprehensive index of atmospheric particulate pollution, combine the comprehensive index and Per Capital GDP to construct “EKC” curve model, estimate the atmospheric particulate pollution comprehensive index and the concentration of pollutants, forecast the economic loss caused by atmospheric particulate pollution, Finally, this paper provides some suggestion on how to reduce the health hazards and economic losses of atmosphere particulate pollution in Harbin, to provide reference for the prevention and cur of atmosphere particulate pollution. |
