Evaluation of Eco-Environment Quality in the Scale of County: A Case Study of Changping District

Abstract:

According to the social-economic statistics and environmental data, this paper evaluated the eco-environmental quality in Changping district based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The results showed that the value of the total system, including social, economic and eco-environmental fields, has been increased from 67.27 to 81.79, which indicated that the total eco-environmental quality in Changping district has been improving from 1999 to 2005. The value of social system has been improved from 63.09 to 84.73, which would mean that enhancement of live quality had reflected the social progress. The value of economic system was also growth from 68.23 to 80.49, which explained some economic index such as GDP could express the progress of economy. The value of environmental system was floating from 68.02 to 78.78, which clarified that environmental system was complex affected by many factors, and social system, economic system and environmental system restricted mutually. Finally, this paper advised for the environmental improvement in Changping district.
