Why does China, as a major manufacturing country, participate in carbon emissions trading?

But before answering this question, we have to think about the following questions:

Can trading carbon emission rights really prevent climate warming?

Can reducing carbon emissions really stop climate warming?

Is climate warming harmful or beneficial to China?

I set up and operate this channel alone, hoping to share the real China with the world as well as clarify misconceptions and lies against China. 

The continued development of China is the biggest game-changer in this century that affects all aspects of everyone’s lives. Embrace the change and seize the opportunity.
