        I am all for classifying pollution this way the law, as written, excludes it with this part:

        “…for the express purpose of affecting…”

        The express purpose of releasing pollution from jets is to provide thrust for transportation. The pollution is a byproduct and not part of the express purpose. An umbrella’s function of blocking the sun is an express purpose of the device.

      Just hold on very tight so you don’t release your sunblocking apparatus into the atmosphere.
