Methods： Using the data of CGSS（2010） to conduct the empirical analysis based on Logit model. Results： Residents＇ choice on medical insurance and environment protective behaviors could alleviate the damage of environmental pollutions on health. Compared with the young and middle-aged, the elderly effectively alleviated the damage brought by environment pollutions through participating medical insurance. Compared with the low-educated individuals the high-educated inviduals＇ choices for environment protective behavior could effectively release the damages brought by environmental pollutions. Conclusion： The government should advocate environmental protective behaviors, provide full coverage of medical insurances to let individuals alleviate the damages of environmental pollutions by their rational choice. More emphasis should be paid to the damage of environmental pollutions on the elderly group and individuals with lower education.
