Demarcation of the principle of tort liability for ecological damage
"Environmental pollution and ecological damage liability"in Chapter 7 of the seventh chapter of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China adds ecological damage as the cause of environmental tort,and breaks the traditional scope of environmental tort liability adjustment,and brings ecological environment damage liability,a tort type with public law attributes,into the scope of adjustment.Therefore,the tort system of ecological destruction has the attributes of both public law and private law,which makes it difficult to distinguish different torts caused by the same act of ecological destruction,and the applicable responsibility is ambiguous.The principle of tort liabily for ecological damage showld be classified from the infringement of legal interests based on the mechanism of ecological damage.Through the elaboration of the special attributes of different in-fringement types,the causality and imputation principles of different infringement are explored.Fi-nally,a set of independent liability system for the infringement of ecological damage is developed,and a proper connection and integration mechanism between the liability for environmental pollu-tion caused by ecological damage and the liability for ecological environmental damage is estab-lished.
