结语
国际环境法和全球环境治理目前仍然是一个充满成长活力的领域。环境问题越来越具有跨越国界的负外部性,而国际环境法的激励(成本和收益)和信息(遵约和违约)分布具有很强的不对称性,全球环境治理面临集体行动困境,各国政府和企业往往不愿或者不能积极推动国际环境法治和加强全球环境治理。为此,环境非政府组织出于环境公益保护的理想、公益捐助市场的竞争和灵活多样的信息搜集和传播渠道,积极参与并深刻影响了国际环境法和全球环境治理的宏观格局和微观制度。非政府组织通过国家和国际制度间接参与国家间环境治理法律机制有助于克服各国政府、企业激励不足和环境协定秘书处信息不畅的局限,积极推动国家间环境治理法律机制的生成、实施和演进。非政府组织的参与促进了国际法律机制的管理和服从。{29}非政府组织独立制定实施的全球环境私人规制治理机制则开发利用了多种市场力量杠杆和政府规制杠杆,影响和改变国家和企业的偏好、观念、身份认同和利益计算,从而有助于补充和加强国内法上的国家治理和国际法上的国家间治理。目前的国际环境治理制度设计应该进一步提升非政府组织的参与地位,充分发挥非政府组织在国际环境法和全球环境治理中的比较优势。与此同时,随着其参与地位的提升,非政府组织也必须进一步提高其自身的合法性和问责性。唯其如此,才能增强非政府组织参与的有效性,也才能增强国际环境法和全球环境治理的合法性、有效性和适应性。
