This website has been produced and maintained by the China-Canada Cooperation Project in Cleaner Production funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). The project was established in 1996 and focuses on cleaner production policy, cleaner production implementation in the chemical and light industry sectors, training, gender equality and the use of information technology in the implementation and promotion of cleaner production. 

Chinese and Canadian CP team measures SO2 emissions in chimney at Jinchuan Nickel Plant, Gansu province.

China's new Clean Production Promotion Act was approved on June 29, 2002. Companion legislation, Small and Medium Enterprises CP Promotion Act, was also approved. This law included an article to encourage small and medium size enterprises to implement cleaner production in accordance with the CP Promotion Act.

The Project team offer their heartfelt congratulations to National People's Congress, the Environmental and Resource Protection Committee, the NDRC, and the Chinese Policy Working Group for their diligence and leadership in enacting this unprecedented legislation. We look forward to working with NDRC to achieve its successful implementation of the new act.
