生态文明与我国环境法律责任立法的完善

Ecological Civilization and Improvement of Environmental Liability Legislation

生态文明建设对环境立法提出了新的标准和要求,需要我们从生态文明的角度重新审视和评估我国的环境立法。环境法律责任立法是环境立法最重要的一个组成部分。从生态文明的角度来看,我国的环境法律责任立法面临着环境法律责任主体范围过于狭窄、环境违法成本过低等突出问题。未来的环境法律责任立法,一方面要扩张环境法律责任的责任主体,另一方面要通过责任强度的提高来提高环境违法成本。

Ecological civilization provide new criterion and requirements for the environmen- tal legislation. It is necessary to reassess the environmental legislation in China. In this respect, the environmental liability subject in the present environmental legislation is too limited and the cost of environmental law breaking is too low. To improve the environmental liability legislation in China, on the one hand, the liability subject need be expanded; on the other hand, the cost of environmental law breaking need be advanced.
