Historical data show that although there is a series of shortcomings in their current functioning, employing such instruments for GHG reduction policy making is strongly expected to be efficient and effective. The European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS), Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) are just a few examples of the ambitious EU initiative that heavily relies on such instruments. We dwell on their operations and achievements by far and all the content in this article is expected to convince the Chinese government and regional public authorities to take positive actions and attitudes in promoting these instruments.展开更多

This paper presents calculation methods of GHG emissions and data on production activities, as well as fuel consumption, energy, etc. This example shows that environmental investments are effective primarily in the environmental aspect, but they can become profitable (the carbon trading market of GHG allowances and by providing alternative energy in national energy system, resulting in "green certificates").展开更多
