ABSTRACT: The system of the administrative talk to environmental supervision is one of the internal
supervision systems of the new Environmental Protection Law. The ministry
of environmental protection has had administrative talks with the main government
principals of about thirty cities since 2014 in which year China put forward the concept
of new environmental normality. Through analyzing information of administrative
talks and environmental data, we find out that the ministry of environmental
protection achieved its goals in a mild way by having talks with the main government
principals like their mayors without too much direct administrative intervention.
Administrative talk of environmental protection has positive influence on solving
major environmental problems and strengthening environmental law-enforcing supervision
in short term. But practice in establishing the system of executive environmental
responsibility and the system of environmental accountability are still needed.
