The Challenge of Rule of Law and Institutional Response to the Automatic Discretion of Environmental Law Enforcement
Carbon neutrality and peaking aims to achieve sustainable ecological and environmental governance both at the national and global levels.Green development,as a crucial pursuit in environmental law enforcement,has seen administrative bodies gradually deploy algorithmic systems for remote regulation of environmental violations.Facing the transition from street-level bureaucratic enforcement to algorithmic enforcement,questions regarding the legitimacy of technological discretion have become a focal point in administrative legality.Moreover,the improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of automated decisions often relies on training with vast amounts of data.Given the limitations in government-recorded data,the inclusion and utilization of data from private sectors to form more comprehensive and accurate decision-making models is pivotal in advancing high-level automation in judgment.Additionally,environmental enforcement agencies should recognize the positive values of decision-making benchmarks.Through enhancing the discourse system of decision-making standards,they aim to achieve a unified legal and ecological-friendly approach in administrative law enforcement.
