At present, the research on the ecological environment damage system is insufficient, which has a negative impact on the judicial application and the unification of the legal system. Among the ecological environmental damage system, the determination of responsibility is undoubtedly the most critical. Therefore, this dissertation only selects the element of causality to carry out research. Specifically, on the basis of defining "ecological environmental damage". Then, it focuses on the causality of ecological environmental damage liability in China,through the research of judicial practice of causality determination. Finally, the paper puts forward a solution for the identification of causality in China's ecological environment damage liability, based on the theory of presumption of causality, and the burden of proof as a supplementary system.
