Abstract Review of progress made by the international society after UN Framework Convention on Climate Change shows filly the current of the international relationship on environment:1) The environmental problems is getting into the political field, which is that on one hand, the environment problems become more and more the main topic for discussion, and another hand, the environment problems are affected more and more by polity;2) The national environmental relationship is showing complication, including the diplomatism relationship on environment、trade relationship on environment、the environment relationship between territory、the relationship between making and carrying out international environment pact and the international investment relationship on environment;3) The cooperation on environment is getting hardship more and more, so that about both various countries' practical carrying out pacts and the environment cooperation between countries, the difficulty is great and the progress is slow and the efficiency is low;4) The warfare on environment exhibits intensification, which shows that in all international treaties on the environment, there are furious debates surround almost every environment law document, and that the international environment strive appears to the trend of becoming more and mo re intense. So China should confront with the grim challenge for the future on the environment and development, to which China will have to actively strike the corresponding measures. Firstly, the environment diplomatism must be developed energetically in order to force the reformation of irrational national order in environment and polity economy fields and reject effectively "the climate interventionism" and "environment hegemonism". Secondly, it is necessary to notice closely the national environment trends in order to learn in time the new thing on the changing national environment affair and to take some flexible countermeasures. Another, we must hammer at the research on environment problem and at improving indeed the environment of our country. Finally, we should adjust actively the configuration of production and energy resource to cut greenhouse gas emission.
