China‘s Climate Change Policy Strengthening Its Diplomacy
Abstract: This research
attempts to examine China‘s climate change diplomacy. This paper also observes
how China strengthens its interest in line with the speed of climate change
impact. China should consider climate change as the threat for its national
interest since it impacted to its rapid economic growth. Currently, China’s use
of fossil fuel has produced the significant amount of carbon dioxide emissions.
In response to this, China considered to strengthen its energy policy as a way
to reduce emission through The National Development and Reform Commission
(NDRC) whose job is to confirm that mitigation and adoption of climate change
are standardized. Furthermore, China has issued the principle of equity in 2009
by strengthening the responsibility for historical emissions of the developed
countries and the future emissions rights of the developing countries. At the
international level, China played a strategic and significant role in
Conference of Parties in UNFCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change). In addition, deepening a climate change cooperation with the United
States was also at China’s lists.
