The invention provides an environment-friendly ceramsite brick and a production method thereof, and relates to the technical field of building material manufacturing. The environment-friendly ceramsite brick comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 50-80 parts of ceramsite, 20-25 parts of straw, 10-15 parts of fly ash, 3-5 parts of glass beads, 3-5 parts of methyl bentonite, 1-3 parts of a flame retardant, 1-3 parts of a polystyrene resin solution, 3-5 parts of a water-retaining agent, 1-3 parts of nano-zinc oxide, 1.5-2.5 parts of a chelating agent and 2-3 parts of an adhesive. The straw and the fly ash are added into the raw materials, the fly ash is an active hydraulic material and can continue to generate a hydration reaction in a humid environment, so that the internal structure of the ceramsite brick is denser and the strength is improved, the straw and the fly ash are cheap raw materials so that the production cost investment of the ceramsite brick can be reduced, the viscosity among various raw materials can be increased through the methyl bentonite and the chelating agent, so that the strength of the ceramsite brick is improved.
