	abstract = {The textile industry contributes a lot to China’s economy in history and present. However, it also causes serious impacts
on the environment. Environmental prices methodology was proposed to convert various environmental impacts into
corresponding social marginal value and it can be applied for the evaluation of the environmental loads. This study
applied environmental prices methodology to calculate the social marginal value of the caused environmental impacts
in China’s textile industry during the period from 2001 to 2015. The results showed that the minimum value of caused
environmental impacts was €9.556 billion and the maximum value was €16.599 billion. Among the three sub-industries
of China’s textile industry, Manufacture of Textile had the highest value, followed by Manufacture of Chemical Fibers,
and Manufacture of Textile, Wearing Apparel and Accessories. The value of greenhouse effect caused by CO2 emission
was the largest. The value of ammonia nitrogen in wastewater was the largest and followed by the values of COD, As,
cyanide, Hg, Pb and Cd. An in-depth analysis of the results indicated that the social marginal value of the textile industry
closely related to the scale of the industry, the international market and government policies.},
