If the original development line of treatment after pollution,human is bound to be serious delays because of revenge of nature of economicdevelopment. Now China, carbon dioxide emissions has surpassed the United States,became the first in the world, how to reduce fuel use of energy efficiency, how toreduce excessive emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere of economicactivity is this article focused on the issue.according to the carbon content of the carbon dioxide gas (or carbon emissions)tax, Carbon taxes are through the enterprise to reduce energy consumption, protectthe natural environment.
