Abstract

This paper aims to use the panel data of 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China from 2005 to 2014, to build a measurement model based on the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis, and to make an empirical study on the relationship between urbanization and environmental pollution in China. The results show that therelationship between demographic urbanization and environmental pollution is anti-N-type curve, and the “double inflection point” is located at the demographic urbanization rate of 35.20% and 52.06%. The spatial urbanization is positively correlated with environmental pollution. The economic urbanization is negatively correlated with environmental pollution. The life urbanization is weakly but positively correlated with environmental pollution
