Abstract

On 22 December 2000, the State Council of China officially released the National Outline for Ecological and Environmental Protection. In order to further implement the concept of the Outline, the State Environmental Protection Administration of China proposed to comprehensively promote the creation of ecological demonstration areas. As the most basic independent administrative unit in China, township administrative regions are a key bridge connecting cities and rural areas. The comprehensive ecological planning of townships is an important means to promote rural urbanization and promote rural environmental protection work. It is also a concrete manifestation of the scientific development concept and sustainable development (SD) concept in rural work. The research focused on Yuntai Town, Changshou District, Chongqing as the research object and analyzed the physical geography information and socio-economic situation of Yuntai Town. Then, based on the reference of previous achievements, a comprehensive ecological environment evaluation index system was constructed, and an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to evaluate the evaluation indicators. In order to improve the objectivity of AHP, a fuzzy analysis method was used in the experiment to improve the process. On the basis of studying the actual situation of Yuntai Town and based on the established evaluation index system, this study offers targeted suggestions for the deficiencies in the comprehensive ecological planning of Yuntai Town. The establishment of a comprehensive ecological planning and evaluation index system in Yuntai Town has theoretical and practical significance for the SD of the town.
