Research On The Legal Issues Of Carbon Emission Trading In China Under The Goal Of Carbon Neutrality

Extreme weather and various natural disasters brought about by climate change are becoming more frequent,and how to cope with the negative impact of climate change has become a common problem faced by all countries.Greenhouse gases represented by carbon dioxide are the main causes of climate change,and all countries have reached a consensus on reducing carbon dioxide emissions,on this basis,all countries have put forward their own carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals,and China also proposed to strive to achieve "carbon neutrality" before 2060 at the general debate of the 75 th session of the United Nations General Assembly on September 22,2020.The proposal of the dual carbon goal is not only a clear positioning of China’s own development path,but also a solemn commitment to the international community.The proposal of carbon neutrality goal provides a more practical path planning and implementation scenario for addressing climate change.As a policy and legal tool to address climate change and reduce carbon sequestration,carbon emissions trading provides support for the realization of carbon neutrality goals.From the institutional point of view,the rules of the national carbon market have not been unified,there are characteristics of regionalization and fragmentation,fewer trading varieties,insufficient activity of the carbon market,etc.,from the practical point of view,carbon emission trading contract as a relatively new contract,the ability of trading entities to identify risks put forward higher requirements.Finally,there are still problems such as unclear regulatory responsibilities and inadequate supervision of all parties to the transaction,how to properly solve the above problems and promote the unification of the national carbon market is a difficult problem for China to achieve emission reduction targets.The improvement of the carbon emission trading system should be based on the current situation of China’s carbon market,and on the basis of summarizing the experience of local pilots for many years,it can also fully learn from the more mature carbon market operation systems of other countries.First,starting from the legal system,improve the level and effectiveness of legislation,gradually promote the unification of the rules of the national carbon emission trading market,and provide institutional guarantees for the smooth operation of the carbon market.Secondly,in the process of carbon trading practice,we will try our best to avoid transaction risks by strengthening the qualification review of trading entities and improving the transaction dispute resolution mechanism.Finally,it is necessary to strengthen the supervision of carbon trading,and ensure the fairness and impartiality of the carbon market and stimulate market vitality by clarifying the responsibilities of entities and strengthening information disclosure.The lack of legal system and inadequate supervision have restricted the development of China’s carbon market to a certain extent,so the improvement of the carbon emission trading system needs to face up to the above problems,and explore solutions suitable for China based on actual conditions,so as to escort the development of the carbon emission trading system and the realization of carbon neutrality goals.
