研究概述

2021年4月，蔡英文總統正式宣示2050淨零碳排目標。雖久未跟進國際追求碳中和的趨勢，臺灣的決心終於一舉從「長期減碳」躍升至「邁向零碳」的層級。這也意味著，除了過往以溫管法為主軸的減碳政策工具外，還需要擁有克服既有障礙的決心，如水泥、鋼鐵、塑料和交通運輸業，即所謂的「難減產業」，都有許多邁向零碳社會必須克服的重要困難。基於以上，本研究將嘗試在科學技術領域取得突破，並在社會，政治，經濟和文化實踐中促成典範轉移，從而為大幅度減少碳排放量，開發有效和實用的解決方案。

Project Summary

On April 22, 2021, President Tsai Ing-wen officially announced a target of net zero emissions by 2050. The announcement signaled Taiwan’s leap from “long-term strategy for reducing emissions” to “moving towards Zero Carbon”. This also means that, in addition to the previous carbon reduction policy instruments based on the Greenhouse Gas Reduction and Management Act, there is a need for determination to overcome obstacles, such as cement, steel, petrochemical and transportation, the so-called “harder-to-abate sectors”. Based on the above, this project attempts to make breakthroughs not only in the field of science and technology, but also to initiate the paradigm shifts in social, political, economic and cultural practices in order to develop effective and practical solutions for significant carbon emission reductions.
