It has adopted a [[web 2.0]] approach, which gives user-generated comment a key place in the site, and sees the use of RSS feeds, [[Creative Commons]] material, and news briefs and links collected from varied sources across the net.

Its tagline is "China and the world discuss the environment".

[[BBC Radio 4]]'s [[Sheena McDonald]] said on the ''Talking Politics'' programme on December 23, 2006, that the site was the only fully bilingual website in English and Chinese focusing on the environment in the world. She interviewed editor [[Isabel Hilton]], who at the time was also editor of [[openDemocracy]], who said that the aim of the site was to foster a dialogue which might otherwise be defeated by language barriers.

It shares a similarity in construction and ethos with [[China Digital Times]], which is run by the [[China Internet Project]] at the Graduate School of Journalism at the [[University of California, Berkeley]].

The website was re-launched with a new design in September 2012.

==Mission statement==
China is growing fast and, as it grows, it is faced with urgent environmental challenges. Environmental costs may account for 10 per cent of China's GDP and the effects of pollution, desertification and climate change are already beginning to be felt within China and outside her borders. Climate change, species loss, pollution, water scarcity and environment damage are not problems confined to one country: they are challenges that concern all the world's citizens, but the rise of China gives them a new urgency. Tackling these challenges will require a common effort and common understanding. Here at chinadialogue we aim to promote that common understanding. By establishing the world's first fully bilingual website devoted to the environment we aim to promote direct dialogue and the search for solutions to our shared environmental challenges.<ref>http://www.chinadialogue.net/static/about#mission</ref>
