Human social development based on the needs of the increasing exploitation and the use of force of environmental resources, rapid economic development, deepening of industrialization, and continued population growth, all have a lot of pressure and impact on natural environment. Our country is facing serious environmental problems as in the economic transformation. Pollution not only reduces environmental quality, impact on economic development and hinder the improvement of the quality of people's lives, damage the basic human rights, but also from China's international image, to national competitiveness and industrial security and other threats.The concept of emissions trading market is first proposed by Scholars Dyers in the United States in the 19th century 60s. The USA first put it into practice which achieved remarkable results. In the 19th century 80s, emissions trading pilot project start to implement in China. Premier Wen Jiabao made it clear to support it in the Report on the Work of the Government on March,2009. "Green", "low carbon", "energy-saving" has become the hot topic of 2010 National concern.The essence of emissions trading is to solve environmental problems by economic means, incorporated emission rights into the market by distributing and trading within determining the context of environmental capacity, not only greatly reduce environmental policy's implementation costs, but also make the user in the pursuit of maximizing their own interests while achieving maximum benefit the whole community. Emission rights market transactions will not only promote scientific and technological progress gradually to control and reduce pollution, will also benefit China's economic structure and energy structure adjustment and optimization, the effective allocation of environmental capacity resources, and ultimately beneficial to the ecological balance of the available sustainable development. Emissions trading system, the core is to establish a reasonable emissions trading market for marketing. Study the establishment of emissions trading market, not only in theory to deepen and enrich the connotation of ecological theory, but also provide theoretical support to optimize our environment, and establish and operate emissions trading market.Emissions trading has been proposed, researched and practiced as a means of environmental. As we all know, politics and the economy have difference, but also there are links. Marx pointed out that the economic base determines the superstructure; the superstructure of the economic base is counterproductive. Lenin also suggested that politics is the concentrated expression of economics. The economy is the lifeblood of politics, politics service for it. Although not determine the economic development trends, politics is able to promote or hinder the economic. To construct the emissions trading market, the process of politics and the economy role have different emphases, not only need to play a government function, what is more is need to give full play to the emission trading market regulatory role. This article is to systematic study of emissions trading market based on politics and the economy unity.In this paper, history and logic, theory and practice, case analysis and the combination of the general theory of abstract methods, to do comparative analysis on emissions trading, both forward-looking of the Western developed countries' trends of emissions trading markets, but also objectively set out in China emissions trading market situation and problems. Theory and practice of double height, fully systematic establishment of emissions trading market, set out the basic ideas and fundamental measures.The first part focuses on the emissions trading market and set of related concepts, introduced the concept and characteristics of the emission rights and emissions trading, and emission trading market, and a secondary market.The second part is an overview of emissions trading theory and practice, theory has Hardin's tragedy of the commons theory, externality theory, Coase Theorem, and the theory of sustainable development; practice were the United States, European Union countries, as well as China's emission trading practices are introduced.Construction of the third part of the proposed emissions trading market problems:understanding the concept of emissions trading in the misunderstanding, the lack of relevant laws and regulations, environmental capacity and the total emissions measurement and control is difficult, there is initial allocation of emission rights barriers, emissions trading market mechanism has not yet perfected, and the functions of government emissions trading to be converted.Corresponding to the third part of the, emissions trading market, the fourth part is building on existing issues countermeasures. In concept, we should strengthen environmental awareness and clarify the misunderstanding of emission. In law, we should gradually improve related laws and regulations of emission trading under the premise of establishing the legal status of emission rights in China. We can effectively determine the environmental capacity and the total emissions by improving the technological level of the emissions trading and defining the object, subject and region. To distribute the initial allocation of emission rights in rational and effective way that predominantly by paid, free distribute to complement. Role of the market on the perfect market pricing mechanism, improve the property rights system, reduce transaction costs in order to improve the market competition mechanism, stimulating demand and supply sides of the main trading activities in the market initiative to improve market supply and demand mechanism. Government's role on the need to transform government functions, rational and effective role of the government's active role in emissions trading.
