Abstract: From 2013 to 2022, the ecological environment in Hebei Province has undergone historic, transformative, and global changes, which is one of the most significant areas of change in the past decade. This article takes Hebei Province as the research object, comprehensively evaluates environmental carrying capacity of the region over the past decade, analyses its spatiotemporal evolution characteristics, and studies the structural and governance system of the ecological environment. The research results indicate that while the carrying capacity of the ecological e surroundings continues to improve, the foundation for a stable and positive ecological environment in Hebei Province is not yet solid. The turning point from quantitative change to qualitative change has not yet arrived, and it is still during a vital stage of pressure accumulation and progress under serious loads. Hebei Province has significant geographical advantages and a good development foundation.
