摘要	This study aims to investigate the influence of air pollution and physical exercise on residents' health using data from the Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS) 2018. The research is based on the Grossman Health Production Function and employs the ordered logit model to analyze the relationship between air pollution, physical exercise, and residents' health. We find that among the Chinese population aged 18 and above, air pollution negatively affects residents' physical health, whereas physical exercise has a significantly positive effect. Introducing gender-stratified and urban-rural stratified models, the research reveals that the negative effects of air pollution on residents' health vary among different groups. On one hand, men and residents living in urban areas will bear heavier health damages due to air pollution. On the other hand, physical exercise positively affect the health of both men and women, whether in rural or urban areas. Additionally, age and higher income are associated with better physical health, whereas education does not show a significant impact. Based on these findings, a series of policy recommendations have been proposed to comprehensively and systematically promote ecological governance and sustainable development. The government should strengthen environmental regulations, reduce residents' exposure to air pollution risks, improve the equality of basic public services, invest in rural sports infrastructure, promote healthy lifestyles, and provide personalized health guidance through health education and mobile health services. Moreover, when formulating policies, the government should consider the specific needs of different groups to ensure the fairness and sustainability of the policies.
