Proof on the causation of environmental infringement cases, most scholars believe that both of the supreme people’s court on the several provisions of the civil lawsuit evidence "or" tort liability law of the People’s Republic of China, provisions of the causal relationship between the burden of proof inversion principle, namely the causal relationship between the burden of proof shall be borne by the offender from beginning to end; More scholars writing demonstrates the existing environmental tort prove the rationality of the responsibility inversion. However, some scholars believe that the supreme people’s court provisions about civil action evidence, essentially only the similar to Japan’s "indirect reduction to absurdity" causality presumption of law. And scholars believe that, in general will causal relationship as a whole and is the burden of proof for the distribution inversion is easy to cause confusion.
