Abstract

The environmental Kuznets curve( EKC) is that the relationship between environmental and economic condition is inverted ushaped. Based on this theory,economic level and environmental change since reform and opening up in Shandong Province was analyzed by means of measurement model. The results showed that: in Shandong Province,SO2 EKC curve is N,soot EKC curve is u-shaped,EKC of waste water and industrial solid wastes is an inverted u-shaped curve on the left side of the part,the EKC characteristics of Shandong Province are correlated to the composition of the industrial structure significantly. Shandong Province should accelerate industrial structure adjustment and strengthen the awareness of environment.
