Abstract: Abstract Ecological and environmental pollution is a common important problem, and it is impossible to talk about the relationship between humans and nature without involving human behavior. The analysis of human behavior not only sheds light on understanding man but also represents the importance of ecological development and growth. This paper builds a framework of external and internal factors to analyze human behavior, and game theory is used to simulate the conflicting interests of human behavior. Then the GMM method is used to empirically analyze the deduction function of the benefit and payment function from the game analysis, besides the MS-VAR model is also used to capture the dynamic change of human behavior in environmental protection. Games analysis integrating the use of GMM and MS-VAR links the theory analysis with the practice and uses real data to analyze human behavior instead of virtual assumptions. Although this paper takes the situation in China as an example, the framework of empirical analysis suggests a framework of quantitative analysis of human behavior in environmental protection for other countries and regions.
