The book analyses the implementation of greenhouse gas reduction policies in EU countries (represented by Britain, France and Germany), the Umbrella Group (represented by the United States, Japan, Canada and Australia) and developing countries (India, Brazil and South Africa) in terms of the standards and regulation policies, fiscal policy tools, trade licenses, voluntary agreements, information tools, and research and development policy.

It also critically reviews two popular policy tools: the carbon tax and the carbon market (allocation market based on total quantity control).

In addition, the book reviews and analyses China's emissions reduction policies and makes a comparison between China and foreign countries, finding existing problems in China's green gas reduction policies and putting forward thoughts and suggestions to perfect policies based on international experience.
