Abstract

Effective environmental protection, although individual involvement is essential, requires a government-level strategy and a complex set of tools. This professionally grounded, change-oriented, nationwide long-term policy, surrounded by conscious decisions, is called environmental policy. The larger a country, the greater the global weight of its domestic environmental policy. China is the most populous country in the world, with the second highest nominal GDP, and the third highest in terms of territory. There are few states whose domestic environmental policies would be as decisive for the future of humanity as those of China. Our world is also greatly influenced by the international role of the Chinese in environmental protection. The willingness and extent of this is explored in the present study in the reports of the General Secretary presented at the National Congresses of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The paper does not analyse China’s environmental policy but describes how this area appears in the reports of the CCP General Secretary every five years.
