Performance Evaluation of Regional Ecological Capital Operation of China: Taking Poyang Lake Eco-economic Zone of China for Example
In recent years, the ecological capital becomes the factor that has important influence on the economic development. To establish the ecological capital operation performance evaluation model and to make comprehensive measurement of regional ecological capital operation, we can effectively measure the regional ecological and economic coordination degree and provide relevant basis for formulating the regional economic development and environmental protection policy. In general, there are few scholars making research on ecological capital operation; and also there are some disputes on the connotation and mode of ecological capital operation. Therefore, on the basis of domestic and foreign scholars’ research, and taking Poyang Lake Eco-economic Zone in China as an example, the regional ecological capital operation performance evaluation index system was established from three dimensions including economic value, ecological value and social value in this paper. The paper combines the expert evaluation with objective weighting method and entropy evaluation method to jointly confirm the index weighting, then to construct the regional comprehensive capital operation index, therefore to perform empirical analysis of regional ecological capital operation. The conclusion is that the ecological capital operation performance of Poyang Lake Eco-economic Zone is constantly increasing. However, in the score of ecological capital operation performance evaluation, the growth speed of economic performance is the fastest, the second is social performance and the last is ecological performance, which means that the investment in ecological environment in the ecological capital operation process is insufficient. It provides a good idea to explore the comprehensive development of great lakes region and pursue the coordinated development path between ecological protection and economic development.
