Research on Foreign Trade of Guangdong Province Based on the Emergy Ecological Footprint

摘要

In order to understand whether Guangdong's foreign trade is coordinated with ecological environment, we use the emergy ecological footprint model to analyze the current status of emergy ecological footprint of Guangdong's foreign trade which is divided into biological resource account, energy account, and industrial products account from the year 2008 to 2018. The results show the trade of biological resources account and energy account are ecological reserve and the trade of industrial products is ecological deficit, which means the trade is coordinated with ecological environment in biological resources account and energy account and is not coordinated with ecological environment in industrial products accounts. We also propose that the coordinated development of Guangdong's foreign trade and the ecological environment needs to focus on the protection of cropland, grazing land, forest land, fishing ground, the improvement of energy efficiency, increasing investment in high-tech research and development, strengthen the pollution control and other aspects.
