碳权利的提出及其法律构造

The Concept of Carbon Right and Its Legal Making

随着应对气候变化的理论与制度实践的不断深入发展,碳权利概念日益受到关注。碳权利通常是用来指代碳排放权、碳汇等具有财产性内容的各种利益,被视为一种新型的产权。但目前对这一概念的理解和认知还比较粗浅,其内涵与外延均处于比较模糊的状态,在法律层面上也缺乏正式的提出与界定,这些问题已经影响到应对气候变化的相关制度能否顺利有效地推进实施。因此,碳权利的正式提出,对于气候变化应对措施的法制化、碳交易的规范化等具有十分重要的意义。当下迫切需要对碳权利的概念进行界定,对其性质进行厘清,以及进行法律上的确认与构造,从而为相关制度的构建与实施奠定基础。

With further improvement to the system dealing with climate changes,drawing more and more focuses is the concept of carbon right,which,as a new property right,is used to refer to carbon emission,carbon sequestration and other interests.But,up to now,the concept has not been sufficiently understood,with its definition not yet clearly made.Putting forward this concept is very significant in legalizing the measures to be taken both to curb climate changes and to normalize carbon trading.Thus,it is very necessary to define the concept and to make clear its nature,so as to get it well established in law.
