Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the context of globalization, several large-scale industrial transfers have occurred worldwide, and some industries with high energy consumption and high pollution rates have also been transferred to less developed countries or regions, resulting in environmental problems such as water pollution, air pollution and land pollution. The original intention of environmental regulation is to protect the ecological environment, but regional differences lead to the generation of the pollution refuge effect. Developing countries or regions often relax the standards and enforcement of environmental regulations for economic growth and increases in employment. In China, the world's largest manufacturing country, some resource-consuming and pollution-intensive industries have also been transferred from eastern coastal areas to central and western regions, with the industrial transfer accompanied by the transfer of pollution. In this context, the exploration of the relationship between environmental regulation and industrial transfer has practical significance and value, so as to explore how trans-regional collaborative green development can be achieved, which is the value of this Special Issue. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: the transfer of pollution-intensive industries; testing the pollution heaven hypothesis; regional coordinated green development; the spillover effect of water pollution; widespread air pollution diffusion; coordinated environmental governance policies.
