Analysis of the Environmental Kuznets Curve Characteristics of Industrial Waste in Jinan City

With the 1994-2003 economic and environmental data in Jinan City as basis,the model of the industrial waste discharge per employment GDP and the industrial waste discharge per capita GDP have been established,and the relationship between typical environmental indexes and the increase of per capita GDP is analyzed.The results show that the industrial waste discharge per employment GDP is generally a downward trend,which indicates that the scale-up of industry,the technological progress and readjustment of industrial structure have yielded significant environmental benefit.Meanwhile on the whole the relationship between economic development and environmental pollution conforms to the characteristics of EKC.Jinan City is still at the stage of industrial development,and the EKC turning point of the environmental waste discharge has not yet been reached.Thus,some methods should be put forward to solve these problems.
