Abstract

With the acceleration of the globalization of the world economy, deepening of China's reform and opening up, improvement of economic development level and living quality, demand for environmental quality has been continuously enhanced. With the acceleration of the process of industrialization and urbanization in China, the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and environmental pollution has attracted much attention. China has made remarkable achievements in absorbing FDI over the past 30 years since reform and opening up. Undeniably, FDI has promoted the growth of China's economy, improved labor productivity, effectively facilitated the development of export, popularized environmental technology, and promoted the environmental protection consciousness of citizens and so on. However, FDI is a "double-edged sword". With the gradual introduction of FDI, its industry gradually shift, so a large part of the pollution-intensive industries (Pollution Intensive Industries, referred to as PIIs) also gradually transferred to China, which also exerts negative effects on environmental protection. Waste water, waste gas and solid waste generated by pollution-intensive industries greatly damages the ecological environment and poses a serious threat to the people's health, which causes obstacles to process of sustainable development in China and affects the public health of the whole society.
