我国的环境刑事立法不应设立危险犯

The Potential Damage Offense against Environmental Protection should not be Stipulated as Crime in China’s Criminal Legislation

尽管破坏环境的犯罪具有越来越严重的社会危害性 ,但要规定某些环境犯罪为危险犯以期充分发挥刑罚的威慑和惩罚作用却并无必要。在动用刑罚这种制裁手段时应谨慎从事 ,要防止仅从主观愿望出发任意扩大它的适用范围。破坏环境的行为往往和社会生产技术水平相联系 ,在保护环境方面 ,民事和行政法律措施更为有效 ,刑法的大驾还是少动为好。

Although environmental crimes do greater and grater harm to the whole society, it's yet unnecessary to stipulate the potential damage offense against environmental protection as crime. The criminal penalty should be carefully applied so as not to extend it coverage just out of our wishes. As to environmental protection, civil and administrative measures can play an more effective role than criminal penalties.
