美国当选总统、民主党人拜登20日在首都华盛顿宣誓就任美国第46任总统,并于同日签署行政命令,美国将重新加入《巴黎协定》。保尔森基金会主席、美国前财长亨利·保尔森对此发表如下声明。
2021年1月20日,芝加哥——我对拜登总统将气候变化作为新政府优先事项的领导力和智慧表示赞赏。上任首日就重返《巴黎协定》是一个强有力的信号,表明拜登政府已准备好应对这一至关重要的议题,并在美国及全球范围内发挥引领作用。
气候变化正在威胁我们的地球和人类生计,这一点确信无疑。扭转这场危机的唯一希望是我们与各国政府、私营部门和民间社会建立全球伙伴关系,制定健全的政策,促进技术进步,推动变革。今天的行动是朝着正确方向迈进的重大跨越。

CHICAGO, January 20, 2021—I commend President Biden for his leadership and wisdom in making climate change a priority for his administration. Rejoining the Paris Agreement on Day One is a powerful statement that the Biden administration is prepared to lead at home and abroad on this vitally important issue.


Climate change is the most certain threat to our planet, our people and their livelihoods. Our only hope for turning the tide on this crisis is working in global partnership with governments, the private sector, and civil society to develop sound policies, promote technological advancement, and drive change. Today’s action is a leap in the right direction.
—Henry M. Paulson, Jr., Chairman of the Paulson Institute and former US Treasury Secretary
