China stands to benefit from the booming global greenhouse gas market as foreign investors flock to pay Chinese energy companies and factories to reduce pollution instead of spending far more to cut emissions at home. While in the world, global carbon credit trade market rose to US$60 billion in 2007, from US$33 billion the previous year. We see the second consecutive year that China led the world's carbon trading market on the supply side. On the other hand, China dominates the global project-based market in carbon credits through Kyoto¡¯s Clean Development Mechanism

We bring you China Carbon Congress 2008, the first practical and interactive event of its kind in China, specifically developed to create a knowledge platform to inform new entrants in the market, update buyers, sellers and other stakeholders of the latest status and trends of the carbon market in China and around the region. We will bring together 300+ senior business leaders, traders, technologists and green professionals within the industry to the same platform where buyers meet with sellers directly and interactively address key issues happening in the industry. CCS 2008 is also Asia leading congress and exhibition for all stakeholders in the region¡¯s carbon markets, including: project hosts and developers, carbon credit buyers, government and municipalities, regional DNA¡¯s, consultants, verifiers, lawyers, carbon brokers and media.

CCC2008 have built up our credibility and reputation on the carbon market for the past few years through research and commercial activities with various industry leaders. We will deep explore following questions which has become every body concern: What drives the price of carbon? Where does the carbon market go from now? Where are CDM investment opportunities? How do carbon funds operate and develop in the future? Which deals are most attractive?
