Factors influencing the environment: A current Status Overview and Proposing solutions for Vietnam

The strong development of the current economy leads to increasing environmental pollution, which directly impacts people when faced with natural disasters that occur every year and with high frequency. Analysis of the current environmental situation in Vietnam shows that the process of socio-economic development has caused environmental pollution to continue to become complicated, causing serious consequences and threatening ecological security. The current situation and trends of Vietnam's ecological environment in recent years show that Vietnam's environment is facing huge challenges in the coming years, so timely solutions are needed. Therefore, this study examines factors affecting the environment and evaluates the current environmental situation in Vietnam. In this study, the authors collected data from 12 countries worldwide from 2000 to 2021 and analyzed it using Stata software. Meanwhile, factors such as GDP per capita, forest area, and energy consumption impact the environment; factors such as FDI, Level of urbanization, and Trade openness do not have an impact on the environment. From the above analysis, the authors will provide solutions for the current situation in Vietnam to improve environmental problems while ensuring economic development.
