China's industrial pollution is linked to land policy reforms. Marketizing industrial land prices shows an inverted U-shaped pollution trend, while land conveyance openness impacts pollution differently based on industrialization stage.
Area of Science:
- Environmental Economics
- Urban Planning
- Industrial Policy
Background:
- Industrial pollution control is a significant challenge during China's economic transformation.
- Research on the connection between land policy and industrial pollution remains limited.
- Existing measures have not fully addressed the complexities of industrial pollution.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the relationship between industrial land policy reforms and urban industrial pollution in China.
- To analyze the mechanisms through which land conveyance price marketization and process openness affect pollution.
- To provide policy recommendations for industrial pollution control through land conveyance mechanisms.
Main Methods:
- Developed a theoretical framework linking land policy to industrial pollution.
- Constructed an econometric model using data from 104 large and medium-sized Chinese cities (2003-2016).
- Analyzed the impact of industrial land conveyance price and openness on urban industrial pollution.
Main Results:
- Marketization of industrial land conveyance prices exhibits an inverted U-shaped relationship with urban industrial pollution.
- The impact of industrial land conveyance price on pollution is consistent across different industrialization stages.
- Openness of industrial land conveyance promotes pollution during industrialization but inhibits it in post-industrialization stages.
Conclusions:
- Industrial land policy, specifically price marketization and conveyance openness, significantly influences urban industrial pollution.
- Policy interventions should consider the stage of industrialization when adjusting land conveyance mechanisms.
- Improving the industrial land conveyance system is crucial for effective industrial pollution control.
