Abstract

As a country whose environmental protection legislation develops relatively late, environmental problems have occurred frequently in recent years, especially those related to enterprises’ environmental protection responsibilities. Through the comparison of environmental legislation and the legislative differences on corporate environmental responsibility between China and Japan, this paper aims at figuring out what deficiencies exist in Chinese environmental legislation. Some suggestions on China’s future environmental protection legislation concerning the advantages of Japanese environmental legislation will be given.
