The advancement of technology and economic development has raised the standard of living and at the same time brought a greater burden to the environment. Environmental governance has become a common concern around the world, and although China's environmental governance has achieved some success, it is still a long way from the ultimate goal. This paper empirically analyzes the impact of environmental publicity and education on environmental governance performance, using public participation as a mediator. The results show that: the direct effect of environmental publicity and education on environmental governance performance is not significant; environmental publicity and education have a significant positive effect on public participation; public participation significantly contributes to environmental governance performance; public participation shows a good mediating effect between environmental publicity and education and environmental governance performance. The government should adopt diversified environmental protection publicity and education in future environmental governance, and vigorously promote public participation in environmental governance so that the goal of environmental governance can be fundamentally accomplished by all people.
技术和经济的发展提高了生活水平，但同时也给环境带来了更大的负担。环境治理已成为全世界共同关注的问题，尽管中国的环境治理取得了一些成效，但离最终目标还有很长的路要走。本文实证分析了环境宣传教育对环境治理绩效的影响，以公众参与为中介。结果表明：环境宣传教育对环境治理绩效的直接影响不显著；环境宣传教育对公众参与有显著的正向影响；公众参与对环境治理绩效有显著的贡献；公众参与在环境宣传教育与环境治理绩效之间表现出良好的中介效应。政府在未来的环境治理中应采取多样化的环境保护宣传教育方式，大力推动公众参与环境治理，使环境治理的目标能够得到全民的根本实现。
