The objective of the organizers of the Symposium on the Global Atmospheric Effects of Aviation was to bring scientific, technology, and policy leaders together to review the status of all relevant atmospheric research, for discussion of potential mitigation measures, and to consider what policy-relevant information may be available to decision makers in the next few years. Specially-focused studies to understand and reduce aviations's environmental impact are currently supported and carried out by governments and other organizations throughout the world. Scientific assessments in support of the Montreal Protocol, which recently have included consideration of aviation, are conducted by the Protocol's Ozone Science Panel. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change provides scientific-technical advice to the Framework Convention on Climate Change and its assessments independently to all governments for their use in national policy making. Standards to control emissions from aircraft are established by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)- itself a United Nations specialized agency, based upon recommendations from its Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP).
