A balancing act: Chinas role in climate change [1]

In order to strengthen cooperation on and deepen analysis of issues related to sustainable development, the Swedish Government
has set up an advisory Commission on Sustainable Development.
The Commission serves as a forum for discussion, analysis and
dialogue. At the end of this year, governments from all countries of the world will gather in Copenhagen and try to negotiate a successor to the Kyoto protocol. The outcome of these negotiations hinges in many respects on what China decides to do. There are many signs that China may come to play a much more important role in global mitigation of climate change than was thought only a couple of years ago. The report in question deals with this issue, and is a contribution to our understanding of Chinas possible role in a future global climate policy regime.
