At their summit meeting in California earlier this month, US President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that the two countries were prepared to cooperate on combating climate change, committing to phasing out the use of hydrofluorocarbons in conjunction with the 1987 Montreal Protocol.On June 18,
true religion outlet, China implemented its first carbon trading scheme in Shenzhen,
cyeb, which it intends to extend to four municipalities and two provinces over the coming year. And this week, Obama is scheduled to give a major speech laying out a detailed plan for addressing climate change in the US. These are exciting,
celine bags, if modest, developments for both countries. Advocates of an international climate change agreement with binding emission reductions, demoralized by the disaster at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in 2009, may feel that if China and the US are taking action domestically on climate change, the prospects for a new international climate change treaty should brighten considerably.If only it were that easy. While domestic policies in both countries may be shifting to a more favorable direction, the domestic politics of climate change are not. In any international negotiations,
Isabel Marant Shoes, the most important players are often those who aren't even seated at the table. Powerful interest groups may oppose an agreement,
pshwu, making ratification or implementation impossible. Leaders at the international bargaining table may worry about losing their jobs,
longchamps, or worse, if the agreement is seen as running against the interests of powerful domestic constituencies or if it leads to policy outcomes that threaten their power or legitimacy. This is the rock on which countless international agreements have been wrecked.In the US, the executive branch appears to be on the side of bold action, but the Obama administration has been stymied by a narrow section of domestic industry interest groups and legislators who are committed to blocking climate change legislation for any number of reasons: opposition from coal companies who stand to lose profits from additional regulations, conservative politicians opposed to any initiative favored by the president, as well as domestic resistance from members of congress who believe that climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the political left and who routinely deride science and research in general as liberal brainwashing. In China, the country's rapid economic development and growing population have depended on the use of fossil fuels, making any sort of reduction in the usage of these fuels,
hdfd, absent a suitable and comprehensive alternative,
gucci bags, politically difficult. It was for this reason that Chinese negotiators played hardball at Copenhagen,
zcuc, rejecting not only binding emission cuts for itself,
Cheap true religion jeans, but also the inclusion of unilateral emission targets for the developed nations. No matter what China does to clean up its own cities or reduce emission-related pollution,
tory burch, it is unlikely that their growth-first policy will all of a sudden take a back seat to environmental protection.Ironically, despite their wildly divergent political systems, both China and the US are essentially adopting similar domestic approaches to climate change. Obama has relied on the use of executive orders,
GHD Outlet Store, recognizing that if he waited for Republicans in the US Congress, he would be wearing scuba gear to work by the time they passed climate change legislation.Of course, this sort of executive action is precisely what China has begun to do with carbon trading, particularly as outrage has risen over the toxic levels of air pollution in major Chinese cities. China's political system does not pose the same sort of domestic constraints on executive decision-making as that of the US,
hufsj, and the market-based domestic carbon trading scheme,
http://www.nntpd.com/, if effectively implemented, could put the country in a strong bargaining position at future conferences. Both countries are taking cautious steps at home to address a serious global problem,
tdkr, and one can only hope that this translates into a broader international agreement in Paris in 2015. However, for such an agreement to be reached,
ustri, China must move beyond its previous opposition and play a more constructive role at the negotiating table, and the US must find a way to move beyond the dysfunction of its own political system. The author is anindependent foreign policy analystcurrently based in Beijing,
