Almost all countries of Northeast Asia are linked with sea. With the rapid economic development, the marine environment is getting worse and worse. To address these situations, these countries have been making great efforts in the development of legislation on prevention of marine pollution. However, only national legislation cannot solve such marine pollution problems and one effective method is multilateral or bilateral cooperations.This article aims at making a comparative study on the current marine environmental situation and relevant national legislation of China, South Korea, Japan and Russia, and their cooperation. In the author's opinion, in order to prevent the worsening of marine pollution and achieve the sustainable development of marine environment, two ways are more necessary and effective:first, to draw up a Northeast Asia marine environment protection convention, and, second, to reinforce the cooperations among the northeast Asia nations.This article is composed of the following parts:the first part deals with the general introduction of marine environmental pollution and relevant international conventions; the second part touches on the current marine pollution situation and relevant national legislations; the third is on the discussion and analysis of the limitations of the current international cooperation and multilateral or bilateral cooperations of Northease Asia nations; As conclusion, this article suggests that a convention on protection of Northeast Asia marine environment be necessary and the Northeast Asia nations should reinforce their cooperation in this field.
