Features: Since the late 1990s, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress has revised laws such as the Law on the Protection of the Marine Environment, the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, the Land Administration Law, the Forestry Law, the Fisheries Law, and the Water Law, and has enacted new environmental protection laws such as the Law on Combating Desertification and the Law for Promoting Clean Production. The State Council has formulated (revised) regulations such as the Regulations on Environmental Protection of Construction Projects, the Regulations on the Safe Management of Hazardous Chemicals, and the Regulations on the Administration of Pesticides. The United Nations held the World Summit on Sustainable Development, adopting documents such as the Programme of Implementation and the Johannesburg Commitment on Sustainable Development. China held the fifth national environmental protection conference, proposing to strengthen environmental pollution prevention and ecological protection and implement the "Fifteen-Year Plan for Environmental Protection" to achieve sustainable development. The fourth edition of the Teaching Materials on Environmental Protection Law is primarily revised based on the aforementioned laws, regulations, and recent developments in international environmental protection law. It particularly emphasizes the integration of theory with practice and strengthens the content on legal liability. This Teaching Materials can be used as a required course for law schools and universities, as an elective course for related disciplines, as a training manual for environmental protection supervision and management departments, and as a reference for environmental protection management departments and enterprises and institutions.
