Abstract

In recent years, while China’s economy is developing at a high speed, environmental problems are becoming more and more serious. Problems such as air pollution and water pollution are emerging one after another, causing serious social problems. Environmental governance is imminent. Therefore, China revised the new “Environmental Protection Law” in 2014, and established a public interest litigation system based on the civil litigation system of the United States and other Western countries. This is the bottom line guarantee for China ’s actions against Green China, but from the current perspective, it has not been long before the procuratorate filed a lawsuit in this type of case, and China ’s relevant legal provisions for such cases are still flawed, and the legal profession has not paid much attention to such litigation, and environmental issues also include the problem of uneven regional development. This article will discuss the issues of joint tort liability in environmental public interest litigation cases, the consequences of damage and the determination of environmental repair responsibility, with a view to better improving the mechanism of environmental public interest litigation.
