Abstract
The premise condition of emission trading is the total emission control. Environmental capacity refers to the maximum load of a pollutant that can be accommodated by an environment on the premise that human survival and natural state are not endangered. We allow a certain amount of sewage, because zero emissions in reality any production and consumption may not achieve pollution. However, such permission must be quantified and a certain amount of surplus environmental capacity is required. If the environmental capacity is saturated, there will be no surplus emission rights, there will be no more emissions trading. In the mid and late 1980s, China began to establish the emission permit system. Since 1989, five systems of environmental management have been proposed, which initially created the feasibility of the system for carrying out emission trading. After nearly 40 years of development, China's emissions trading has also developed at a stage. This paper will analyze the current situation and problems of air pollutant emission trading in China.
