According to the newly published Blue Book of China's Corporate Citizenship Report (2009), China's industrial enterprises are still the main source of environmental pollution, accounting for about 70% of the total pollution.
Wu Xuean, a judicial expert, pointed out that so far China has not had a mature environmental cost control system. How economic development can control environmental costs under the strategy of sustainable development has become an unavoidable reality. Considering the fruits of economic development, we can no longer ignore environmental costs. In the process of development, China’s economy is “carried down†with a huge environmental cost, and the huge amount of environmental cost accounts has greatly discounted the economic development results. The state's levy of environmental taxes, for enterprises, means that they must assume the responsibility and obligation to protect the environment in economic activities. Only by explicitly including environmental costs in the cost accounting of corporate economic activities can the company be truly responsible for the environment.
At present, the Ministry of Environmental Protection uses the environmental access threshold as a major means to strictly control follow-up companies. It is reported that in 2008, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has improved environmental access conditions for 13 high-energy-consuming and high-emissions industries such as electricity, steel, and petrochemical, and will not approve construction projects that do not meet environmental capacity requirements and do not meet national industrial policies. . According to statistics, in the year of 2008, the Ministry of Environmental Protection did not accept, approve or suspend the approval of 156 "two high and one capital" projects with a total investment of 473.7 billion yuan. However, the passive situation of environmental protection has not yet been reversed.
It was learned from the relevant departments that the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†of the national economic and social development program clearly issued binding indicators that the energy consumption per unit of GDP was reduced by 20% and the total discharge of major pollutants was reduced by 10%. These indicators were the driving force for economic development. The important connotation of the green transformation. In addition, green credit aims at taking drastic measures to “lose grain†for environmentally unqualified companies, while green insurance, green trade, and green taxes aim to gradually “strang†non-environmental companies and products through economic leverage.
