In the new era, the central government has elevated “building a beautiful China” as a national strategy. Use environmental quality to evaluate the political performance of local officials. When “free-riding” is not enough to improve environmental quality, local governments have to increase fiscal environmental protection expenditures for environmental governance. Out of free-riding psychology and the need to improve environmental quality, local governments have demonstrated Different forms of competition for fiscal environmental protection expenditures. From the perspective of strategic interaction, this paper uses the Moran Index to detect and determine the fiscal environmental protection expenditures of 30 provinces and regions from 2007 to 2019. The results show that there is competition for fiscal environmental protection expenditures between neighboring local governments across the country.
