Improve the Environmental Public Interest Litigation System and Promote the Construction of a Beautiful China

Abstract

The revision of the Civil Procedure Law and the enactment of the new Environmental Protection Law have laid the foundation for the development of China's environmental public interest litigation system, which has become an essential part of China's legal system. However, due to the short history of China's environmental public interest litigation system, the lack of systematic legislation and system design and interface mechanisms, the lagging development of relevant procedural rules and judicial practice, all of which are very diff erent from each other, have placed high demands on the construction of China's environmental public interest litigation mechanism. Therefore, this paper proposes to set up pre-trial procedures for environmental public interest litigation and improve the collaboration mechanism for public interest litigation cases, so as to protect the ecological environment and promote the construction of beautiful China.
