As environmental protection problems become the global issues recently, China could not get rid of the responsibilities as being developing country. Thus, how to deal with the international regimes become more and more important toward Chinese government. How could China take balance between international regimes and domestic beneficial groups? In addition, it also briefly discusses how China deals with the environmental diplomacy through different international environmental regimes. In this thesis, it uses international environmental regimes as theory to discover the relations among countries and enterprises. Thus, in this thesis, it will divide into three parts which are the international environmental regimes such as Kyoto Protocol, China¡¦s environmental laws, and cases studying of chemical industries of China. The result of analysis implies that no matter the international environmental regimes or China¡¦s environmental laws are inefficient to avoid environmental crisis. The real power relies on the beneficial groups or other profit projects. Consequently, how China achieves its goal on environmental protection might be more and more important in the future.
