運輸部門は、世界における温室効果ガス（GHG）の主な排出源の1つであり、特に道路輸送の比率が高い。道路輸送の脱炭素化には、技術革新と社会変革を組み合わせ、輸送手段を最適化することが求められる。道路輸送の脱炭素化に際しては、技術の進捗状況や商業化のレベルが国や地域によって大きく異なるため、地域ごとのまちづくりや社会的課題の解決につながるような方策が求められる。運輸部門の脱炭素化は、広範な社会構造の変化につながり、気候危機といった深刻な問題に対する解決に貢献するとともに、豊かな交通社会を導く好機となりうる。

本ブリーフィングノートは、バイデン政権の気候政策の見通しについて考察するものである。 バイデン政権の就任1か月間の気候政策に含まれている主要な要素と、そこに含まれていないものについて分析した上で、これらの政策が今後、どのように採択され、実施されていくかについて検討する。具体的には、バイデン大統領の気候政策立案プロセスの主要人物と組織構造、初期の主要な優先事項と戦略、そして国境炭素調整措置など、国内外のいくつかの特定分野における今後の政策の方向性について論ずる。そこでは、大統領令や規制、法律の違いを説明するとともに、気候政策と雇用や経済全体との強い関連に言及する。そして、通常は気候関連の議論の対象にならないが、気候対策を実施する上で重要な、省庁や関連する諸機関について考察する。
