Based on the perspective of environmental protection, this paper adopts the Grey relationship analysis method to measure the relationship between ecological footprint of different land types, ecological footprint and economic growth. It is shown that there is strongest consistency between the grassland ecological footprint and the total ecological footprint. Changing tendency consistency between biological resource land's ecological footprint and the total ecological footprint is higher than that of energy resource land, the influence of energy resource land's ecological footprint on economic growth is stronger than that of biological resource land, and the building land's ecological footprint influences economic growth the most strongly.

Abstract


Based on the perspective of environmental protection, this paper adopts the Grey relationship analysis method to measure the relationship between ecological footprint of different land types, ecological footprint and economic growth. It is shown that there is strongest consistency between the grassland ecological footprint and the total ecological footprint. Changing tendency consistency between biological resource land's ecological footprint and the total ecological footprint is higher than that of energy resource land, the influence of energy resource land's ecological footprint on economic growth is stronger than that of biological resource land, and the building land's ecological footprint influences economic growth the most strongly.
