Abstract

Effective global environmental governance is the only viable way to solve the human environmental crisis. For a long time, China has been an active promoter and contributor to the global environmental governance system. In recent years, China has enhanced the penalty intensity of environmental crimes, the environmental pollution crimes in particular, and received good results in order to better realize the construction of ecological civilization and better fulfill the emission reduction targets of international environmental treaties. The deterioration of China’s environmental crisis in the past and the lack of deterrent effect of China’s environmental laws are closely related to the ineffective punishment of environmental crimes. In order to better promote environmental protection careers, China’s environmental crimes still need to be continuously optimized in terms of adding charges, legislative models and restorative justice.
