Abstract  

The goal of regional development is to reduce the environmental impacts resulted from the human activities,and to achieve the social economic growth without increasing material utilization.Based on the scenario analysis,Gansu province is taken as an example to study the coupling degree of regional energy economy environment system,where the indices GDP,Energy Consumption and CO2 Emission respectively correspond to the economic growth,resources utilization,and environmental impact.The results show that it could be one-sided to measure the circular economic development level based only on the indices of eco-efficiency or resource productivity. During the process of improving and restructuring the regional socio-economic activities,we must pay attention to decoupling between environmental impacts and resource utilization.
