Research On My Country's Legal System To Adapt To Climate Change

Until now,the Global Climate Change has developed into the most severe environmental problem which is faced by human society.Its complexity has overwhelmed every puzzle that human have solved.It is an environmental crisis,as well as an developmental problem.The phenomenon involves the whole world that no one could stay out of it.The United Nation therefore formally introduced two strategies to fight with climate change.One is the Mitigation,the other is the Adaptation.Mitigation focuses on reducing the amount of the greenhouse gas's emission,mitigating the situation that the climate change keeps aggregating,and then make sure its scale ultimately under human's control.While the Adaptation tends to evolve human society's various kinds of abilities,which allows us to adapt the climate change without a hitch,decrease its negative influences,even take advantage of existing changes.By analyzing the rules and status quo of climate change,this article illuminates that if we want to overcome the obstacles brought by climate change,Mitigation,which remains the mainstream of many governments' choice,is not enough,adaptation must be applied to supplement with it.And I also discussed about nowadays china's current situation and insufficient in Adaptation's legal system,then put forward some advices about improve relevant management systems.The aim of this article is to serve as a reference for the further legislation works.The article is divided into three chapters,details as follows:Chapter one introduces the differences between Mitigation and Adaptation,and details the reasons why sole Mitigation is not capable enough of fixing the existing and the upcoming climate crisis,then leads on to the urgency of adopting Adaptation.And the necessity of legitimizing Adaptation is the final topic that we want to prove in this chapter.Chapter two pays close attention to China's relevant laws,regulations and policies about Climate Change Adaptation.It points out the deficiency of them,serving as the base of Chapter four.Chapter three researches the legislation of the EU and the US.About the former one,I focus on the establishment of the Precautionary Principle,and try to figure out the inseparability of Adaptation and Mitigation.As for the later one,I analyze the models of legislation of Adaptive Laws(differ from Adaptation Law).Then I summarize their experience and lessons for reference.Chapter four aims at the deficiency listed in Chapter two,lists and introduces the three principles of adaptation to climate change legislations,Most Vulnerable Groups Preferred,Sustainable Development and Efficient Participating.I elaborate the core difficulties we're going to conquer,such as the conflict with the right of development.Then I combine the content of the Paris Agreement and the Action Plan for Urban Adaptation to Climate Change,make an endeavor to design the system of Adaptation Foundation,Information Release and Insurance.Finally,in the epilogue of the article,I think China should follow the principle of sustainable development,insist promoting development,mitigation and adaptation simultaneously to response to the climate change.Adaptation legislations ought to follow the rules of nature,and to combine with native specific circumstances,sum up experience,practically optimize management system,and eventually achieve the goal of reducing china's environmental vulnerability.
