Abstract

Climate change has become one of the important challenges facing the world. As one of the most populous countries in the world, China plays an important role in the fight against climate change. In the context of managing climate change, the implementation effect of hard law has not yet played a significant role, and soft law, as a flexible and adjustable special governance tool, has the potential to play a role and advantage. This paper aims to discuss the role and advantages of soft law in China's climate change governance, and put forward a path to improve the collaborative governance of soft law and hard law in China's response to climate change.
