Regional environment and technology:Pattern recognition,diachronic evolution and interactive effects
Ecological environment and scientific and technological innovation are two systems that can not be ignored in social development.They are independent and blend with each other.Promoting the coordinated de-velopment of environment and science and technology is of great significance to realize sustainable develop-ment.Based on the analysis of the interaction mechanism between environment and technology,this article di-vides environment and technology into four types of models based on the four quadrant partition model:syn-chronous leading,environmental priority,technology priority,and synchronous lagging.The study uses panel data from 30 regions in China from 2009 to 2018 as samples,and uses simultaneous equation models and Bayesian vector autoregressive models to analyze their mutual influence and interaction relationship.The res-ults show that:1)During the observation period,the regional environment and technological innovation were still in an overall upgrading stage,and their coexistence pattern showed an unbalanced pattern in which the eastern region was superior to the central and western regions;2)Environmental quality has a positive impact on the development of science and technology;3)The impact of scientific and technological innovation on en-vironmental quality is not significant;4)It is a long-term process to realize the benign interaction between en-vironment and science and technology.It also puts forward countermeasures and suggestions:develop environ-mental and technological development policies tailored to local conditions,strengthen long-term management mechanisms for technological innovation and ecological environment,and implement differentiated develop-ment strategies based on local resource endowments;technological innovation should adhere to a green orienta-tion,take into account ecological benefits to the greatest extent possible,and pay more attention to ecological environment protection while developing new technologies and products.It should also provide important tech-nical support for ecological environment construction;ecological construction should actively cultivate a good environment for scientific and technological innovation,allowing the vitality of scientific and technological in-novation to fully emerge,gradually forming a good atmosphere for innovation,and thus forming a good situ-ation where the ecological environment feeds back scientific and technological innovation.
