In recent years,the unbalanced development of China's economy has caused more and more serious environmental pollution problems,which seriously restricts the health and sustainable development of mankind.Under the background of China's comprehensive reform,can enterprises,as the main force of environmental protection and pollution control,actively respond to the call of national ecological civilization construction and reasonably improve the internal governance mechanism to achieve the goal of reducing pollution emissions and improving environmental performance?Similarly,under the external pressure from national policies,peer enterprises and public interest groups,how does an enterprise use the role of corporate governance mechanism to improve its environmental performance?
