The development path and future trends of resource and environmental metabolism analysis at the village scale
Conducting resource and environmental metabolism research at the village scale not only allows for the direct and quantitative observation of human activities' characteristics in resource utilization and their impact on environmental disturbances, but also supports the accelerated establishment of a waste recycling system and the achievement of a positive ecological cycle. Based on the analysis of the concept of resource and environmental metabolism, this article uses CiteSpace 6.3R1 to construct a co-occurrence map of keywords from current domestic and international literature on resource and environmental metabolism analysis. By comparing the current research status, it explores the comprehensive utilization paths and trend characteristics of resource and environmental metabolism analysis. On this basis, it investigates existing issues in village resource metabolism in terms of data composition, model construction, account design, and optimization control, aiming to propose paths that can improve resource utilization efficiency and reduce environmental impact. In the current context, the problems of rural resource metabolism research need to be explored and optimized in several aspects. First, it is necessary to establish a sound mechanism for data entry, sharing and calling to ensure the comprehensiveness and reliability of resource and environmental data. Second, an integrated model of resource-environment metabolism needs to be developed to better understand and predict the relationship between resource utilization and environmental change in village areas. At the same time, the village scale resource environment and socio-economic metabolism integrated account is constructed to realize the coordination and integration of resource environment and economic and social development. Finally, it is also necessary to improve the comprehensive resource-environment-economy management capacity of the village system, so as to realize the effective utilization of resources and the sustainable improvement of the environment through scientific and reasonable management measures. In this process, government departments, research institutions, enterprises, and various sectors of society should work together to form a cohesive force that promotes the sustainable use and protection of resources and the environment in rural areas, creating favorable conditions for harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
