Abstract

Faced with the severe climate change situation, major economies around the world, such as the European Union (EU), the United States, China, and Japan, have gradually formulated carbon reduction policies to combat climate change. As the world’s top economy, the EU has long been actively promoting the global response to climate change and leading the issue of climate change. This article explores the cooperation among EU countries in reducing carbon emissions. This study can provide a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of national cooperation in carbon emission reduction among EU countries, and can help to provide a theoretical basis for future policy recommendations. This article collected 10 articles from Google Scholar and CNKI and summarized them by category. This paper finds that the carbon emission trading system is opposite to a financial instrument system. This system embodies the “polluter pays” principle. As an important measure, it makes full use of market mechanisms and financial means to promote carbon emission reduction.
