Abstract: Deterioration of the ecology and environment in West China is largely imputed to the backward mode of production and way of life widespread in the rural areas.In developing West China,construction of ecology should be integrated with the construction of human settlement in planning and implementation simultaneously.Emphasis should be paid on the issues of environmentally degraded habitation,endemic stricken habitation,habitation in nature reserves,nomadic habitation and project resettlement habitation.According to different ecological conditions,different strategies are to be taken,such as construction of new habitation,and rebuilding or resettling of habitation etc.
