Ge He

Abstract

China is undergoing economic, social and environmental change that is unprecedented for any nation at any time in world history. To tackle these challenges, the environmental laws that China has enacted over the past 30 years are being strengthened, and new environmental regulations and standards are being issued and implemented by Chinese governments. This chapter introduces a profile of environmental regulations in China: it studies the environmental legal structure and evolution, and the implementation of environmental law. Using a specific example, chemicals policy and management are presented. The chapter also discusses the successes and failures that arise in the environmental implementation process.
