This paper selects the key pollutant data of 53 cities in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta from 2004 to 2016, and tests the effect of the joint prevention and control policy of the atmosphere on the prevention and control of air pollution in key urban groups. The study found that although China’s joint prevention and control mechanism has played a role in preventing and controlling urban emission reduction to a certain extent, the effect is not significant. There are differences in the test results of different pollutants and different regions. The effect of industrial soot emission reduction is not as good as that of sulfur dioxide. The effect of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regional policy is the least obvious. From the influencing factors, the growth of per capita income, the environmental awareness of large cities, the Internet communication and participation of residents, and the investment in research and development all significantly promoted the effect of joint prevention and control policies. The green industrial structure is not conducive to the role of policy, but will increase environmental pollution. At the same time, large cities with developed economies are more motivated to promote the implementation of policies. The research in this paper shows that there are still some problems in China’s current atmospheric joint prevention and control policy. It can improve the existing mechanism by broadening the main body of governance, forcing industrial upgrading, and focusing on regional differences. This is to promote China. Regional pollution synergy provides a way to support.
