Abstract：Nowadays China faces the challenge of environmental governance sustainability， and the taxes for environment protection is the primary way to solve environmental problems. Based on the evidence of PPP environmental sanitation reform implemented in H city，this paper uses propensity score matching to estimate the causal effect of PPP reform and environmental governance on the willingness to pay environmental taxes.The empirical results are listed as follows： firstly， the understanding level， promotion， and evaluation of PPP reform have a positive effect on the willingness； secondly， the improvement of environmental governance performance can also facilitate residents' willingness； finally，environmental governance performance has a mediation effect between PPP reform and the residents’ willingness. When environmental governance performance stays at a high level， residents are more willing to pay environmental taxes. Other factors that significantly affect the willingness include gender， education level and income level of the residents.
