Abstract: |
Biosafety incidents are an important hidden peril that induce eco-environmental problems. Strengthening biosafety management and improving the rule of law are essential to promote environmental biosafety. The research shows that the consideration of environmental biosafety in legal construction in China started early. The legalization of biosafety fields has achieved some results, such as in terms of alien invasive species; however, there remains much space to improve the law. Strengthening technology research and standardization, improving technical response capability, and turning mature technologies and policies into legal systems are necessary. Relevant laws and regulations that are scattered among the laws of different departments should be systematically reviewed, revised, and compiled into a biosafety code to legalize environmental biosafety to a higher level. |
