Since Climate change came out as a question, it has been a global concern, and was on the international the negotiating table every year. In the background of "prisoners dilemma"of carbon emission (i.e. reduction of greenhouse gas emissions), countries reached the Kyoto protocol in1997(the treaty was in urging effect on Feb.16,2005), which stipulated the responsibilities of greenhouse gas emission reduction, but the mechanism has not been "incentive compatibility", the world’s major countries are still on the game around emissions reduction, which nominally international cooperation, but in essence it is the chasing of interests.The world’s major carbon emission countries, in the face of different sizes of pressure and power, have different attitudes of emission reductions. By establishing specific indexes, developed countries are divided into "facilitator" EU,"dragging its heels" the United States, and many "observer" countries; Developing countries are divided into "potential enabler" such as India and China,"middle swing" Russia, and also "observer" OPEC, etc. Countries with different carbon emission attitudes seek their respective benefits in the game cased by carbon emission, and take different emission reduction measures.International game caused by carbon emission reduction is mainly proceeding between two camps, developed and developing countries, this article explore it from three problems,"common but different responsibilities" principle, CDM mechanism and carbon tariffs, First of all, the three problems’put forward is the compromising product of the international game. For the "common but different responsibilities" principle, developing countries (most) always adhere to it, the United States has opposed it, while the EU’attitudes changed greatly, but the unity of developing countries make EU and the United States’s joint to water down the principle of the plot not satisfied; The CDM mechanism’s brought out is the result of the "bargain" game, which is designed to reach"win-win cooperation", but in the proceeding of mechanism model, it appears stability problems; The impose of carbon tariffs will be a threat to the developing countries, but it has some credibility problem. At the same time the game caused by carbon emission reduction is also proceeding in developed countries and between developed and developing countries.Along with the development of carbon emission reduction and the change of international situations, the game between developing countries and developed countries is more manifested in the several political countries, such as the game in the EU, The United States and China. Through the classify discussion of the "three gunmen" game model, for now, the game in The United States, EU and China is temporary and unsteady, but China should avoid being against the object of The United States and EU. Facing different objects in different stages in the game, China should adopt different countermeasures. To the developed countries, under the guidance of general strategy, China needs to affirm, and also need to take defense strategy, active offensive strategy and persuasive strategy; To many developing countries, China should treat differently to different countries, make effort to unity all developing countries, and take contested "union" strategy to the developed countries.
