南京市生态足迹实证分析

Analysis of Ecological Footprints of Nanjing

利用生态足迹的理论和计算方法,对南京市可持续发展状况及程度进行了评价和度量,利用南京市2001年至2003年的相关数据计算分析得出,南京市的人均生态承载力在逐年下降,人均生态足迹也有增加的趋势,尤其是能源消费生态足迹在近3年的生态足迹中仍然占有很大的比重,南京目前的经济发展是以消耗其他区域的自然资源和能源为基础的,其所面临的生态环境压力仍然很严重。

Ecological footprint method was used to measure the development level from a new aspect and deal with a certain region's development condition.In this paper,Nanjing,Jiangsu Province,China was taken as a case study and assessed from 2001 to 2003 by using the ecological footprint theory.The result showed that the per ecological supply was decreasing year by year and the per ecological footprint was increasing.Especially,most of ecological footprint was from energy.Current economic development of Nanjing depended chiefly on resources and energies from other districts,and the ecosystem environment pressure it faced was still very serious.
