چکیده

By employing the methods of Johansen cointegration test and granger causality test, the paper aimed at investigating the interactions of environmental pollution and economic growth in the process of Zhejiang’s industrialization according to the time series data of three kinds of pollution indices from 1981 to 2006. The results showed that three kinds of pollution indices all had a negative long-term cointegration relationship with GDP per capita, which mean that the economic growth is not necessary result in environmental degradation. The results also indicated that the GDP per capita granger caused pollution emission of industrial wastewater and industrial waste gas except for industrial solid waste discharge, while it was not true in versa. This reason was mainly that there was no distinct definition of the negatively external effect of the effective property protection system and market dealing mechanism on environmental pollution.
