Currently, China is the world's largest producer of rare earths, providing more than 90% of global rare earth metal demand, although its rare earth reserves account for only 23% of its rare earth reserves. world. Rare earth metals, which are one of 17 metals, are very important to produce many high-tech products, from smartphones and wind turbines to electric car batteries. But exploiting these metals is extremely damaging to the environment.
In order to control environmental damage and protect this non-renewable resource, China has implemented many policies, including policies to apply production caps, export quotas, strict emission standards. and higher resource taxes. However, these policies have caused complaints from major consumer countries such as Japan (which bought 56% of China's rare earth exports in 2011). China, despite affirming its continued supply of rare earth to the global market, still maintains a policy of regulating rare earth production.
