4 Preface Human-induced environmental pollution and destruction as a result of rapid economic growth has become an issue of serious concern affecting people s health in China. Although some improvements have been made since the Communist Party and the Central Government established and enacted various laws and policies, the present situation remains unpredictable and daunting. In the background of this paradoxical situation, the significant tendency toward rule by men in various environmental concerns still firmly remains, giving the impression that China is a nation of rule by law, not a nation of rule of law. 1 In the past, many obstacles against law and policy administration have been noted. These include local protectionism practiced by the local governments to protect polluter firms and corporations, regulatory issues such as lack of information disclosure, limited the amount of authority of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, penalties for activities that violate the ethical code or environmental law, and non-independence of judicial power from the administration. In my recent field investigations, I found these issues remained unchanged. At the same time, the general lack of environmental awareness among the Chinese citizens is also a major stumbling block to environmental improvement. In view of this, environmental education and the dissemination of environmental knowledge are essential. In short, circumventing the current environmental quagmire calls for a mix of policy instruments, as it would have been impossible to tackle all the problems and issues as mentioned with just one single instrument. With this view in mind, this book attempts to examine how stakeholders such as the legislators, administrators, corporations, citizens, and environmental NGOs cooperate to solve the difficult environmental issues confronting China from multiple perspectives. The main focus of examination is mainly related to the 1 China is not a country characterized by the rule of law, a concept developed in England on the premise of liberty and democracy. By contrast, China has a tendency to use rules as a tool for administration, better described as rule by law. v
5 vi Preface development and enforcement of environmental law and policy in China. Some of the major issues covered environmental protection law, soil pollution, the target responsibility system in pollution prevention policies, environmental resource tax, multilayered pollution problems, visits and letters in association with environmental management, public participation in EIA, and environmental NGOs, among others. In the first half, we review how these issues are approached from the aspect of government systems and policies, and in the latter half, we discuss approaches from the aspect of citizens. Chapter 1 introduces eco-civilization, Xi Jinping Government s environmental policies from the decision on the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the amendment to the Environmental Protection Law enacted in January This chapter also examines issues for the improvement of environmental governance. In Chap. 2, the author, who participated in the amendment process of the Environmental Protection Law, introduces the detailed discussion on the constitutional process of the amendment law. More specifically, this chapter reveals that the principle of transition from the priority on the economy to environmental protection does not necessarily go hand in hand with environmental administrative transformation. Chapter 3 discusses soil contamination, an issue that, though previously suspected, has recently been made clear through actual environmental studies. Regulations related to soil contamination have been partly enacted, but they were not sufficient to solve the food safety issues, which affect the health of the citizens. In acknowledging the need for the establishment of effective mitigating schemes, this chapter discusses what constitutes an effective soil protection law system. Some of the issues discussed include mechanism for administrative improvement, an analysis of responsibility system, and financial support for environmental improvement. Because of rapid economic development in recent years, China has become a leading consuming country of fossil fuels. Currently, it is the world s largest carbon dioxide emitting country. It also confronts with acute PM2.5 air pollution problem. Chapter 4 discusses the background of the enactment of the target responsibility system (TRS) for environmental protection to overcome these issues, the process of allocating targets to local governments, its legal and political position, and other related issues. Chapter 5 takes up the coal resource tax issue, which serves as an effective means in reducing the consumption of fossil fuels as discussed in the previous chapter. This chapter also analyzes the impacts of the tax system on fiscal revenue, resource conservation, and energy savings for the period of The goals and challenges of the 2011 coal resource tax reform, which changed the tax system from a volume-based system to a fixed-rate ad valorem system based on sales, are also the focus of this chapter. Chapter 6 focuses on the discussion of the limited relief available to pollution victims in environmental litigation. It clarifies the fact that decisions regarding an environmental dispute made by the local committee of the CPC could have substantial impact on the decisions of the local court, while the EPA of the upper level local government or the upper level local court could be disregarded by the local court.
6 Preface vii Chapter 7 discusses the effectiveness of China s traditional environmental complaint letters and visits system. In the current situation with courts taking cognizance of three percent of all environmental litigations in China, this chapter examines the importance of the administration body that handles environmental complaints and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). The establishment of an organization with authority to work out solutions to environmental disputes is suggested. Chapter 8 introduces public participation in the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). It is pointed out that the EIA system introduced in the late 1970s did not include public participation. Although public participation in EIA was introduced in the late 1990s, it was extremely vague and hence defeating its very purpose of participatory improvement. In 2006, the Interim Measures on Public Participation in EIA were enacted. However, issues such as the lack of effectiveness and the absence of trust in public participation in recent years constitute new obstacles to participatory enhancement. China s initial legislative amendment shows an intention to improve important issues such as the scope of legal rules and implementation, and greater consideration for public opinion in environmental issues. Chapter 9 covers the case of chromium pollution by vitamin K manufacturers in Yunnan province. More specifically, it exposes the actual situation of multitiered pollution of the industry concerned. This chapter also touches on the role of NGOs in helping to solve this environmental pollution issue based on actual case studies in Yunan and Hunan provinces. The last chapter, Chap. 10, discusses the history and the roles of environmental NGOs in China. Twenty years has passed since grassroots NGOs were born in China. They have dedicated themselves to solving environmental problems through the development of NGO networks, environmental prosecution and the enhancement of cooperation and communication with pollution victims and supporters in Japan. Overall, the book provides extensive analysis on various important environmental issues confronting China and suggests mitigating measures to contain the problems concerned. We hope this book will prove useful to not only scholars who study environmental governance in China but also readers who are interested in environmental issues in China.
