The concept of green development is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it has become the norm to attach importance to environmental pollution control. However, resources, production factors, historical development, pollution levels and management intensity are different in different regions of China, and there are great differences in environmental pollution management in different regions. The purpose of this paper is to study the spatial differences and environmental regulation of environmental pollution based on social network analysis. Firstly, the mechanism of environmental regulation in our country is analyzed theoretically. This paper introduces the definition and characteristics of social network analysis, and studies the spatial difference governance of environmental pollution based on social network analysis. The factor analysis method is used to measure the comprehensive index of environmental regulation intensity and make inter-provincial comparisons. Through the global spatial autocorrelation test and local spatial correlation analysis of environmental regulation intensity in each province, the spatial characteristics of inter-provincial environmental regulation intensity are discussed. Through empirical research, it is found that from the perspective of spatial distribution, the spatial accumulation of environmental pollution in my country is obvious, the spatial dependence of environmental pollution is gradually strengthened, and the spatial distribution of environmental regulation is positively correlated.
