By using China’s input and output basic data to measure the different sectors of domestic natural resources utilization value and SDA decomposition impact on natural resources, it is found that natural resource dependence is quite different in various industries; whereas the industry dependent on natural resources is on the rise, and resources external dependence is increasing.
