Carbon market as a mechanism to promote low-carbon development has been explored both in theoretical research and practical application home and abroad for several years. However, there are still many problems to settle, such as the potential uncertainty to determine and distribute total carbon emissions, price distortions in high-carbon products and services in the market, main bodies responsible for the carbon emission in urban infrastructure, etc. All these have formed a constraint on the further development of carbon market. Through the historical analysis of the actual development of the carbon market, this paper tries to identify practical problems which should be solved urgently, and provides ideas for China to establish a unified national carbon market in 2017, which is not only the national measures to participate in the "Paris Agreement" actively, but also the implementation of China's sustainable development strategy.展开更多

The development and perfection of carbon finance market has become an important realistic subject under low-carbon economy background. China's carbon finance market is still immature,and lacks the relevant law and government supports and mature intermediary agency; the construction of carbon trading platform is imperfect; it lacks carbon finance products and understanding on carbon finance. To better develop China's carbon finance market,development statuses of carbon finance markets at home and abroad are contrasted from three aspects: legal environment of carbon finance,trading condition of carbon finance and carbon finance business of financial institution,and their difference is analyzed. By referring to foreign development experience,the relevant policy measures of promoting and perfecting carbon finance market in China are proposed.展开更多
