Analysis of residents’ health and willingness to pay for environmental protection in China
Health and environmental issues have become pressing global problems that affect human society's sustainable development. Residents are not only practitioners but also direct beneficiaries of ecological protection and play a crucial role in maintaining ecological and environmental health. Health, as the basis of residents' behavioral choices, influences residents' behavior toward ecological and environmental protection. This study aims to investigate how health factors profoundly affect residents' willingness to pay (WTP) for environmental protection and reveal the intrinsic connection between health and environmental protection behavior. The 2017 China Household Finance Survey (CHFS) data and the ordered probit model were used to determine that improving residents' health greatly increases their willingness to protect the environment and passes a number of tough tests. In addition, the promotion effect of health on residents' WTP for ecological protection is markedly heterogeneous, especially in younger residents who do not have children. Therefore, we suggest to policymakers and national governments a range of countermeasures and suggestions to enhance health education, safeguard public health, and promote ecological protection education.
期刊介绍：
Environmental Development provides a future oriented, pro-active, authoritative source of information and learning for researchers, postgraduate students, policymakers, and managers, and bridges the gap between fundamental research and the application in management and policy practices. It stimulates the exchange and coupling of traditional scientific knowledge on the environment, with the experiential knowledge among decision makers and other stakeholders and also connects natural sciences and social and behavioral sciences. Environmental Development includes and promotes scientific work from the non-western world, and also strengthens the collaboration between the developed and developing world. Further it links environmental research to broader issues of economic and social-cultural developments, and is intended to shorten the delays between research and publication, while ensuring thorough peer review. Environmental Development also creates a forum for transnational communication, discussion and global action.
Environmental Development is open to a broad range of disciplines and authors. The journal welcomes, in particular, contributions from a younger generation of researchers, and papers expanding the frontiers of environmental sciences, pointing at new directions and innovative answers.
All submissions to Environmental Development are reviewed using the general criteria of quality, originality, precision, importance of topic and insights, clarity of exposition, which are in keeping with the journal''s aims and scope.
