The Impact of Public Concern over Environment on Ecological Total Factor Productivity:Taking China's Major City Clusters as Examples
Based on panel data from prefecture-level cities of China's three major city clusters from 2011 to 2022,this article utilizes the Spatial Durbin Model to analyze the impact of public concern over environment on regional ecological total factor productivity.According to the research findings,public concern over environment presents a significant spatial spillover effect on the improvement of regional ecological total factor productivity.This impact of public concern over environment on the ecological total factor productivity is not just short-term but tends to produce a long-term effect with a marginally increasing trend.Under the regulatory functions of a proactive government and an efficient market,public concern over environment can more effectively enhance the ecological total factor productivity,thereby achieving an organic integration of the government,enterprises,and the public.The research conclusion can serve as a valuable reference for improving the ecological and environmental governance system and enhancing the green development level of city clusters.
