As one of China's sunrise industries, tourism has always been the engine to promote the development of the national economy, and in 2018, the annual income of China's tourism industry exceeded 5 trillion yuan unprecedentedly. In recent years, the traditional extensive production mode has inevitably brought about problems such as environmental pollution and public health threats, while helping the development of new urbanization, thus triggering a series of challenges in the environmental health system. The tourism industry, new urbanization, and environmental health system three cooperate and promote each other, the coordinated development between them for economic growth, new urbanization development, environmental protection, and public health play a vital role, in the post-epidemic era is a special period of historical opportunities, the public's focus from the original sacrifice of environmental health in exchange for economic growth model began to green, low-carbon sustainable development mode, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as a tourism resource endowment rich region, It is of positive significance to explore the coupling degree and coordination between the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health system, and put forward targeted practical enlightenment, which is of positive significance for promoting the sustainable development of tourism industry. Taking Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as a case study, this paper constructs three comprehensive evaluation index systems of the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health system, and analyzes and compares the weights of various indicators in the three fields of tourism economy, new urbanization and environmental health system in Guangxi by using the entropy weight TOPSIS method. The coupling coordination model was used to measure the coupling degree and coordination degree of the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health system construction in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2009 to 2021. The empirical results show that the weights of various indicators change with the development of the social economy. The comprehensive efficacy index of Guangxi's tourism industry has increased year by year for 11 consecutive years; At the end of the evaluation period, after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the evaluation index of the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health system all showed a downward trend to varying degrees. Before the pandemic, the coupling coordination type of the three subsystems generally experienced a transformation of "moderate dissonance-reluctant coordination-primary coordination-intermediate coordination," but the overall development level was still poor. After the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the coupling and coordination between the three has been reduced to a state of poor coordination. Because of the above research conclusions, this study proposes to make full use of the important time node of the post-epidemic era and proposes to actively promote the development of the tourism industry, promote the upgrading of the industrial structure, use digital empowerment of the economic form, optimize the environmental health system and other targeted countermeasures to keep the coupling degree and coordination between the three within a reasonable range. This ensures the sustainable development of social systems in the region. This study has made some contributions to the development of high-quality tourism and a healthy environment. First of all, it enriches the content of the environmental health system. This study takes the ecological environment and atmospheric environment in the environmental health system as the entry point and adds the index content of the environmental health evaluation system, which provides a certain supplement for the relevant research on the environmental health system strength. Secondly, the relationship between the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health is analyzed and into a unified theoretical framework. This study takes the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, which is rich in tourism resources, as a case study site, and innovatively explores the coupling and coordination relationship among the tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health system in the case site. Finally, it provides targeted countermeasures for the sustainable development path of the three systems of tourism industry, new urbanization and environmental health in the case site in the future. It is of positive practical significance to compare the coupling and coordination degree between the three, realize the coordinated, orderly, and healthy development of the three in the region, and provide operational suggestions for the upgrading of the tourism industry structure, the benign development of new urbanization, and the formulation of environmental health system policies.
作为中国的朝阳产业之一,旅游业一直是推动国民经济发展的引擎,2018 年,中国旅游业年收入首次超过 5 万亿元。近年来,传统的粗放型生产模式不可避免地带来了环境污染和公共卫生威胁等问题,同时也有助于新城镇化的发展,从而在环境健康系统中引发了一系列挑战。旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统相互合作、相互促进,它们之间的协调发展对经济增长、新城镇化发展、环境保护和公共卫生至关重要,在后疫情时代是一个特殊的历史机遇期,公众的关注点开始从原来牺牲环境健康来换取经济增长的模式转变为绿色、低碳的可持续发展模式,广西壮族自治区作为旅游资源丰富的地区,探索旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统之间的耦合度和协调性,并提出有针对性的实际启示,对于促进旅游业的可持续发展具有积极意义。本文以广西壮族自治区为例,构建了旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统三个综合评价指标体系,采用熵权 TOPSIS 法对广西旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统三个领域的各种指标权重进行分析比较。利用耦合协调模型,测算了 2009 年至 2021 年广西壮族自治区旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统的耦合协调度。实证结果表明,各指标权重随社会经济的发展而变化。广西旅游业综合功效指数连续 11 年逐年增加;在评价期末,新冠疫情爆发后,旅游产业、新城镇化和环境健康系统的评价指标均呈现出不同程度的下降趋势。在疫情爆发前,三个子系统的耦合协调类型普遍经历了“中度不和谐-不情愿协调-初步协调-中级协调”的转变,但整体发展水平仍较差。疫情爆发后,三者之间的耦合协调度降低到了较差的协调状态。基于以上研究结论,本研究提出充分利用后疫情时代的重要时间节点,积极推动旅游业发展,推动产业结构升级,利用数字赋能经济形态,优化环境健康系统等有针对性的对策,使三者的耦合度和协调性保持在合理范围内,从而保证区域内社会系统的可持续发展。本研究对高质量旅游和健康环境的发展做出了一些贡献。首先,它丰富了环境健康系统的内容。本研究以环境健康系统中的生态环境和大气环境为切入点,增加了环境健康评价系统的指标内容,为相关环境健康系统强度研究提供了一定的补充。其次,分析了旅游业、新城镇化与环境健康的关系,并将其纳入统一的理论框架。本研究以旅游资源丰富的广西壮族自治区为案例研究地,创新性地探讨了案例地旅游业、新城镇化与环境健康系统的耦合协调关系。最后,为案例地未来旅游业、新城镇化和环境健康系统的可持续发展路径提供了有针对性的对策。对三者进行耦合协调度比较,实现区域内三者协调、有序、健康发展,为旅游产业结构升级、新城镇化良性发展、环境健康系统政策制定提供了操作性建议,具有积极的现实意义。
