But Judge Breyer said the withheld material included "innocuous information" about aviation protocols, publicly available information from newspapers and the names of senior transportation officials.
The interdisciplinary research project AviClim (Including Aviation in International Protocols for Climate Protection) has explored the feasibility for including aviation's full climate impact, i.e., both long-lived CO2 and short-lived non-CO2 effects, in international protocols for climate protection and has investigated the economic impacts.
"You would have to have solid knowledge of aviation and its protocols and that's not easy to get," he said, adding that he planned to keep on with the research.
The Kyoto Protocol excluded aviation emissions from its rules and instead designated ICAO to regulate these emissions.
Aviation teams also use numerous protocols (for example, pre-flight checks), and within the ICU the emulation of aviation-style protocols to improve patient handovers has been shown to have positive outcomes [ 33].
An additional parallel between the ICU and aviation is the reliance on protocols to ensure safety and quality.
In the late 1990s, international negotiators considered airline emissions such a hot-button issue that they left aviation out of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol's targets for reduction of each nation's greenhouse gases.
For a start, security needs to be treated as a first tier business activity, operating under the supervision of an overarching international body, with international rules, protocols and standards for aviation security, that migrate seamlessly into national and local oversight.

Now I think there will have to be new protocols and it will be up to ICAO and IATA and the aviation community to sort out what the protocols have to be".
