Article: Ecological services and improvement strategies of forest healthcare space environment under the background of carbon neutrality Journal: International Journal of Environment and Pollution (IJEP) 2026 Vol.76 No.6 pp.44 - 63 Abstract: This paper proposes a multidisciplinary optimisation strategy for achieving a 'carbon sink-healthcare-biodiversity' triple win. Integrating data, a collaborative evaluation system is established to assess carbon sinks and ecological services using the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) model. A spatial planning model optimises the layout of forest healthcare bases, balancing carbon sink efficiency with healthcare functions and employing the Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) algorithm and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) for plan selection. Additionally, a community carbon sink return-sharing mechanism is designed, to enhance government goals, enterprise returns, and community satisfaction. The results show that based on the high ecological benefits of 82% government ecological goal achievement rate and 13.4% annual carbon sink growth rate, the enterprise still maintains a 12.1% return rate and 85% community satisfaction. The multidisciplinary approach achieves a 'triple-win' situation of collaborative optimisation of carbon sinks, healthcare, and biodiversity.

The multidisciplinary approach achieves a 'triple-win' situation of collaborative optimisation of carbon sinks, healthcare, and biodiversity.
