4、ping countries and are generally known as "Green Barriers to trade". In accordance with the provisions of the Agreement on Green Barriers to Trade of WTO, "Green Barriers to Trade" is defined as the compulsory and arbitrary Green regulations, standards and conformity assessment p

5、rocedures of the importing countries in the name of the protection of human health and environment that actually form barriers to trade with an aim to protect its home market and domestic products.1. Analysis on the causes of formation of "Green Trade Barriers"Firstly, the worsening of eco

6、logy is the major reason for "Green Barriers". With the development of industry and technology, the economy increases very fast and the human life has been improved. But at the same time, the development of economy is at a cost of the destruction of environment. The environmental problems

7、have aroused public attention and the international society has begun to make laws to protect environment. In June, 1972, the United Nations published the Stockholm Declaration and stressed the importance of the protection of environment. From then on, more and more people concern about the environm

8、ental problems. The concept of environment has influenced the life of humankinds in every layer and the developed countries began to make very strict environmental protection rules under the pressure of public, which forms a barrier to the international trade. Secondly, the differences between count

9、ries in technology, environmental standards and investment directly cause the "Green Trade Barriers". As we know, developed countries surpass the developing countries in science and technology. Even if they make very strict environmental standards, their domestic products can reach the req

10、uirements of strict environmental standards while such standards may constitute barriers to products from developing countries. In fact, these standards may become discriminations against products from the developing countries and constitute a means of arbitrary or unjustifiable discrimination betwe

11、en country.Thirdly, the rise of protectionism in some developed countries contributes much to the formation of Green barriers. In modern market economy, competition is more severe than before. The domestic industries are directly facing competition from the products of other countries, and they will

12、 urge their governments to take effective measures to protect them from the foreign products. While because of the multilateral negotiations of WTO, the tariffs have been greatly cut down and the use of non-tariff measures has also been restricted. Therefore, many developed countries have to resort

13、to some legal restrictions of importation such as Green barriers to protect their home industries, which gives rise to the increase of Green barriers.2. The main forms of Green barriers tradeIn accordance with the related provisions of WTO Agreement on Green Barriers to Trade, the Green barriers are

14、 usually in the forms as follows:2.1 Green TariffSome developed countries would impose import surtax on products that may cause pollution or harms to the environment. If such measure is abused, it will constitute a Green barrier to trade.2.2 Green StandardsGreen standards refer to those compulsory G

15、reen standards provided through legislation. With their superiority in economy and technology, developed countries tend to make higher Green standards with no consideration on the interests of the developing countries. Such high Green standards will in fact constitute a barrier to the products from

16、developing countries which are inferior in technology.2.3 Package RequirementsCertain developed countries stress too much on the protection of environment and require the products should be packed with materials that will have no harm to the environment. If the products are not packed in this way, t

17、hey will not be allowed to sell in the developed countries. If such requirements are unnecessarily strict, they will be a barrier to the international trade.2.4 Sanitary and quarantine inspection systemOn the excuse of the protection of the health of human, animals and plants, developed countries te

18、nd to use very strict sanitary and quarantine inspection to restrict the importation of the products from the developing countries and protect their domestic industries.3. Influences of Green barriers on China's foreign tradeChina has suffered great loss due to the "Green barriers". In

19、 2002, vegetables from Taizhou were prevented from entering Japan because of Japanese strict inspection and the price was greatly cut down. Also in 2002, the aquatic products from Ningbo were restricted by European Union (EU) because they could not reach the sanitary standards of EU. Due to Green tr

20、ade barriers, 60 kinds of Chinese agricultural chemists were banned by EU because they could not reach the Green standards of EU. In accordance with the statistics of United Nations, China has suffered a loss of $7.4 billion in 2002 due to "Green barriers trade". China's export to EU,

21、Japan, Korea and other countries decreases notably. Generally speaking, agricultural products and foodstuff, textile products and mechanical and electronic products are the three main industries which suffer great loss because of the strict Green barriers. Since these three products constitute the m

22、ajority of Chinese exportation, we can easily draw a conclusion: "Green barriers to trade" has become one of the major obstacles in Chinese exportation.4. Countermeasures to the Green barriers of the developed countriesAs mentioned above, it is a fact that the Chinese export products are f

23、acing Green barriers of the developed countries and has suffered great loss. Therefore Chinese exporters should think carefully about the countermeasures to eliminate the unfavorable influences of such measures. First, we should make full use of the preferential treatment to the developing countries

24、 stipulated in the Agreement of Green trade barrier. According to the provisions of the Agreement of Green trade barrier, developed countries should take account of the special development, financial and trade needs of developing country members with a view to ensuring that such Green regulations, s

25、tandards and conformity assessment procedures do not create unnecessary obstacles to exports from developing countries. So, as a developing member of WTO, China is entitled to such preferential treatment. Secondly, China should make use of the Dispute Settlement System of WTO to protect her interest

26、s. Different from GATT, WTO has set up a powerful dispute settlement system to solve the disputes between the members of WTO. So, if our interests are harmed by the unfair Green barriers of other WTO members, we can resort to Dispute Settlement Body to settle this dispute and urge other members to c

27、hange their unfair practices so as to protect our interests. Thirdly, China should stress the protection of environment and take measures to improve the quality and Green level of her export products to meet higher Green standards, which will fundamentally solve the problem of Green barriers.Referen

30、的影響，這些規(guī)定一般被稱為“綠色貿(mào)易壁壘” 。綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的有關(guān)規(guī)定與世界貿(mào)易組織的有關(guān)協(xié)議相一致。綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的定義是：以保護(hù)整個(gè)人類賴以生存的自然環(huán)境和保護(hù)人體健康為的名義，制定一系列的規(guī)則條款，以達(dá)到發(fā)達(dá)國家保護(hù)其國內(nèi)市場和國內(nèi)產(chǎn)品的目的。一、 分析綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的形成原因首先，生態(tài)環(huán)境的惡化是綠色貿(mào)易壁壘形成的主要原因。隨著工業(yè)和技術(shù)的發(fā)展，社會經(jīng)濟(jì)飛速發(fā)展，人民生活水平得到顯著改善。但與此同時(shí)，經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展也以生態(tài)環(huán)境的破壞為代價(jià)。環(huán)境問題已經(jīng)引起社會公眾的注意而且國際社會也已開始制定法律來保護(hù)生態(tài)環(huán)境。在1972年6月，聯(lián)合國發(fā)表的斯德哥爾摩宣言，強(qiáng)調(diào)了保護(hù)環(huán)境的重要性。從那時(shí)起，越來

31、越多的人開始關(guān)注的環(huán)境問題。環(huán)境的概念應(yīng)景影響人類生活的各個(gè)層面，在社會公眾的壓力下發(fā)達(dá)國家開始制定嚴(yán)格的措施來保護(hù)生態(tài)環(huán)境。這也就逐漸形成了國際貿(mào)易的綠色壁壘。其次，國與國之間在技術(shù)水平，環(huán)境標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和對外直接投資等方面的差異導(dǎo)致了綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的形成。正如我們所知，發(fā)達(dá)國家在社會整體水平和科學(xué)技術(shù)水平上遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)領(lǐng)先發(fā)展中國家。即使他們作出非常嚴(yán)格的環(huán)境保護(hù)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，其國內(nèi)的產(chǎn)品可以達(dá)到嚴(yán)格的環(huán)境保護(hù)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的要求，而這些標(biāo)準(zhǔn)則可能對來自發(fā)展中國家的產(chǎn)品構(gòu)成障礙。事實(shí)上，這些標(biāo)準(zhǔn)有可能成為對來自發(fā)展中國家產(chǎn)品歧視的一種手段，并構(gòu)成國與國之間任意或不合理的歧視。第三，在一些發(fā)達(dá)國家，貿(mào)易保護(hù)主義的抬頭，是形成綠

32、色貿(mào)易壁壘的一個(gè)很重要的原因。在現(xiàn)代市場經(jīng)濟(jì)條件下，競爭與以前相比是越來越激烈了。國內(nèi)產(chǎn)業(yè)直接面臨來自其他國家產(chǎn)品的強(qiáng)有力的競爭，他們將敦促各國政府采取有效措施，以保護(hù)他們自己免受來自外國產(chǎn)品的沖擊。然而由于世界貿(mào)易組織的多邊談判，關(guān)稅已大大降低，使用非關(guān)稅措施也受到限制。因此，許多發(fā)達(dá)國家采取的一些法律限制進(jìn)口，如綠色壁壘，以保護(hù)本國產(chǎn)業(yè)，從而引起綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的增加。二、 綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的主要形式根據(jù)世界貿(mào)易組織有關(guān)綠色貿(mào)易壁壘的有關(guān)規(guī)定，綠色貿(mào)易壁壘通常有如下幾種形式：（一） 綠色關(guān)稅一些發(fā)達(dá)國家對其他國家強(qiáng)加進(jìn)口附加稅，這些國家主要是其產(chǎn)品可能會造成污染或損害環(huán)境的國家。如果這種措施被濫用，這將構(gòu)成綠色貿(mào)易壁壘。（二） 綠色標(biāo)準(zhǔn)綠色標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是指那些強(qiáng)制性的通過立法規(guī)定的環(huán)保標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。發(fā)達(dá)國家往往憑借其在經(jīng)濟(jì)和技術(shù)上的優(yōu)勢地位而制定更高要求的綠色標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，沒有考慮對發(fā)展中國家的利益。如此高的綠色標(biāo)準(zhǔn)實(shí)際上是對技術(shù)上沒有任何優(yōu)勢的發(fā)展中國家夠了綠色貿(mào)易壁壘。（三） 包裝要求某些發(fā)達(dá)國家過于強(qiáng)調(diào)環(huán)境保護(hù)而且要求用對環(huán)境沒有任何損害的材料來包裝物品。如果產(chǎn)品沒有按照發(fā)達(dá)國家的要求進(jìn)行包裝，他們將不會被允許在發(fā)達(dá)國家市場上出售。如果這種嚴(yán)格的要求是不必要的，
