Study On The Impact Of Environmental Regulations On The High-quality Development Of The Pearl River Delta Industry

In the 40 years since reform and opening up,the industry in the Pearl River Delta has developed rapidly.However,with the continuous acceleration of industrialization,the economic development model driven by traditional factors such as population and land is unsustainable,unsustainable development issues are prominent,and development is facing tremendous pressure for transformation.At the same time,the Nineteenth National Congress clearly stated that "adhere to the harmonious coexistence of man and nature".As a pillar industry in the Pearl River Delta region,industry plays an engine role in the overall economic development of the Pearl River Delta,but it is also a major sector of energy consumption and environmental pollution.Under the new normal,whether environmental regulation can affect the quality of industrial development and achieve a win-win situation for environmental protection and economic development is of great significance to the future development of the industry in the Pearl River Delta.First,this article builds a Pearl River Delta industry high-quality development evaluation system that covers seven dimensions: innovation-driven,open economy,shared development,green development,speed benefits,structural optimization,and factor efficiency.The entropy method is used for high-quality development of the Pearl River Delta industry After comprehensive evaluation,the results show that from2004 to 2017,the high-quality development level of the PRD industry is on the rise.Then,this article evaluates the trends and characteristics of high-quality development of the Pearl River Delta industry from seven dimensions.Secondly,this article believes that the role of environmental regulation in the development of high-quality industry is reflected in two parts: direct and indirect.In each stage of the economic development process,the two roles are interdependent,and the size of the two determines their comprehensive The role,that is,the relationship between environmental regulation and industrial development is not a simple linear relationship.Therefore,this thesis selects the panel data of nine cities in the Pearl River Delta and establishes a static panel threshold model for empirical analysis.The results show that low-intensity environmental regulation can promote high-quality development of the Pearl River Delta industry,higher-intensity environmental regulation can promote high-quality development,and excessively high environmental regulation can weaken high-quality development.In addition,the strengthening of industrial fixed asset investment,the degree of privatization,the increase in per capita GDP levels,and the increase in scientific and technological inputs will promote the high-quality development of industry.Finally,based on theoretical and empirical analysis,this article puts forward relevant countermeasures and suggestions:1.Maintain the moderate environmental regulatory intensity of the Pearl River Delta;2.Strengthen technological innovation to achieve a win-win situation for industrial development and environmental protection;3.Improve factor efficiency and promote structure through environmental regulation Optimize and upgrade;4.Promote effective investment in industrial fixed assets;5.Promote the healthy development of private enterprises;6.Strengthen the concentration of industrial industries in the Pearl River Delta to reduce the negative effects of environmental regulations.
