Abstract

The developments of the environmental technology have been effected by policy and regulation. And those regulations have been aimed at local area and country based on each environmental issue. In the Kyoto protocol and Kyoto mechanism for climate change issues, it target at about the greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction and the technology transfer by international political commitment. This is the phenomenon in which an international policy directory affected on the technology development and transfer. In this paper, I would like to provide suggestions about setting policy for further development on environmental technology as a result of considerations about the process on the interaction between international policy and environmental technology at the case of the clean development mechanism (CDM) projects which is one of the flexible measures of Kyoto mechanism.
