The result shows that there is Kuznets' inverted U-shaped curve in Hubei Province, and the inflection point did exist in, which proving Kuznets inverse "U" shaped hypothesis. The factors like the development of technology and economy, the upgrade of industry structure and energy structure and FDI will have good effects on carbon dioxide emissions, while the level of urbanization will have side effects on it. So the authorities should find the balance between economy and environment by upgrading structure and the way management, developing green energy resources.
