The starting point and the impetus for the big powers to seek the environmental diplomacy is to safeguard their own interests and jockey for leadership over world environmental affairs.

Firstly, by clarifying the chief responsibilities for global environment, China should persuade the developed to take the first step and to provide more funds on solving global environmental issues and help developing countries to participate in the efforts to protect global environment. Secondly, based on the principles of mutual respect and seeking common ground while preserving difference, China should enhance and enlarge its exchanges and cooperation with the Western big powers in environmental and developmental field so as to win over foreign funds and technical support and promote China's environmental protection and sustainable development. China should resolutely safeguard national interests and boycott the new trade protectionism practiced by western powers in the name of protecting environment. Thirdly, China should make contributions to the global environment by first solving its own environmental problems and promoting sustainable development.
