The Chinese Government's active disclosure of environmental information has improved as a whole,but imbalances are found across regions and in terms of types of information. Companies are still at the starting stage in disclosing their environmental information. Non-governmental organizations have been promoting interaction with environmental protection agencies and organizing trainings,but the application for this service remains inactive. Some NGOs' flexible approaches to promote company environmental information disclosure are rather impressive. In several typical cases,applicants can hardly access the environmental information they need. However,encouraging signs have been found in the latest judicial interpretations. As for the prospect of environmental information disclosure,the following features might be identified: environmental protection agencies will shift their emphasis from the form to the substance of information disclosure; NGOs will not only continue seeking information disclosure but also advocate the use of information; there might be breakthrough in mandatory company environmental information disclosure. <<
