Abstract

Corporate environmental disclosure as an effective tool of environmental manage-ment has been widely concerned. We fo-cus on the environmental disclosure to-wards the firms in the industry of paper making & printing in China. Using con-tent analysis of corporate annual reports and CSR reports in three years, 2008, 2009 and 2010, we investigate the status quo of environmental disclosure in this heavy pollution industry. The pattern, content and level of environmental dis-closure are demonstrated, and then the deficiencies of corporate environmental disclosure are put forward. Finally, we proposed the suggestions for regulation on Chinese corporate environmental dis-closure.
