- Abstract
In recent years, ecological pollution problems in China are becoming more and more prominent, and it is imperative to build an efficient ecological compensation mechanism. At present, China has internalized the external cost of environment pollution through taxation, ecological charge and some other approaches; in terms of fiscal expenditure, producers and protectors of ecological products are compensated through transfer payments and tax expenditures. Although these systems are conducive to environmental protection, they are not yet perfect. With regard to the construction of ecological compensation mechanism, Europe and the United States have a lot of valuable experience. Based on this, China can put forward relevant policies to improve the ecological compensation mechanism. In the field of agriculture and mining, the basic principle of "who destroys and who recovers" should be emphasized, and the incentive and restraint mechanism of ecological protection should be established; in the field of ecological compensation method, while emphasizing government leadership, it should also introduce market-based means to optimize resource allocation through a combination of government and markets; in terms of policies and laws, relevant policies and laws should be promulgated on the basis of ecological projects, and a policy and legal system should be constructed according to local conditions to improve the flexibility and adaptability of ecological compensation mechanism.
