Major Findings /主要研究发现
高发环境群体事件制约了中国绿色转型和经济
结构升级调整；同时也暴露了中国政府在如何
把公众对环境问题的关注转变为依法有序的公
众参与方面极度缺乏经验。
The Chinese government lacks experience in
turning public concern about environmental
issues into legal and orderly public participation.
This has resulted in a growing incidence of
environmental protests and a serious loss of
trust between public and government that could
negatively affect China’s green transformation
and economic upgrading.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
 全面有效的公众参与对于重建政府公信力、恢复政府与
民众之间的互信非常必要；中方专家认为，公众参与既
是权利也是义务，需要系统推进，不可偏废；目前对公
众参与的权利强调较多，但对其义务却强调不够。
 Full public participation is necessary to rebuild trust between
government and people, to improve policy formation and
implementation and to build ecological civilization.
Participation requires clear rules to promote and facilitate
early public involvement in environmental decision-making
and systematic education of public and government at all
levels on environment and sustainable development. It was
a finding of the Chinese experts in the policy study that
public participation should be promoted systematically as
both a right and responsibility. This did not reach full
agreement.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
现有的和公众参与相关的法律、法规和政策没
有得到全面、有效的执行；决策中的利益相关
者表达诉求和寻求法律保护的渠道不够通畅。
Full public participation in environmental
protection has been hampered by inadequate
implementation of existing government laws
and regulations and the lack of sufficient
channels for concerned stakeholders to
represent their legitimate interests or to protect
themselves against the consequences of poor
policy decisions.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
 公众参与、环境教育、环境传播、环境信息公开、环境投
诉反馈等方面的政府服务职能亟待加强，相关资源亟待整
合以更好的服务于公众。
 The government’s support of the goal of public
participation has been inadequate; insufficient resources
have been devoted to environmental education, and
environmental information is not optimized or integrated.
Improvement is further required in the following areas:
environmental information disclosure; response to letters
and visits from the public and environmental complaint
hotlines; definition of competencies and responsibilities of
different organizations and agencies across government;
and optimization of resources and functions to support
public participation in environmental protection.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
 对近年来发生的环境群体事件缺乏必要的研究和经验教
训总结；各级政府对突发环境事故和环境群体事件的预
警、应急响应、善后处理等亟待加强；环境事件舆论应
对能力亟待提高。
 Government performance in the following areas is also
inadequate: communications in environmental
emergencies; environmental monitoring and pollutant
control and elimination; environmental information
disclosure; response to the media and the public over
pollution incidents, controversial new construction
projects and other environmental issues of concern.
Further research could help to illuminate the lessons of
recent environmental incidents and protests, so as to
avoid future mistakes.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
环境传播缺乏整体战略考虑，在污染防治、环
境事故、环境群体事件、舆论热点环境议题、
公众对新扩建项目的环境担忧等方面，均亟需
前瞻、主动和系统的环境传播战略方案。
The government lacks an active and
systematic strategic plan for environmental
communications. A strategy to upgrade and
integrate environmental public relations,
identify potential environmental risks, provide
systematic solutions and offer open
information and proactive communications is
required.
Major Findings /主要研究发现
 新媒体已经成为公众获取环境信息、表达自身意愿、参与
环境决策、监督环境管理执法和表达绿色选择的重要方式；
但各级政府部门及官员理解和运用新媒体的能力却无法满
足现实需求。
 New media have become important channels for the Chinese
public to access environmental information, to express their
wishes and opinions, to participate in environmental decisionmaking, exercise their right of supervision and to make green
choices that benefit the environment. Government at every
level has an inadequate understanding of the important
potential for new media to promote public participation and
improve interaction with the public and this is hampering its
efforts both to understand public opinion and to communicate
effectively with the public.
