**Because, my scientifically ignorant 'friend', the CO2 used for the
production of soft drinks is extracted from the air. IOW, the CO2 in soft
drinks is actually assisting with the REMOVAL of CO2 from the atmosphere.
That is a good thing. OTOH, a case could be made for banning soft drinks on
the basis that they use energy for their manufacture and are, generally, an
appalling way for humans to obtain kilojoules.

**Did it strike you to think where that CO2 came from? It is extracted from
the atmosphere. Thus carbonated soft drinks actually help with removing CO2
from the atmosphere.

If you really want to cut back on global warming, learn
how to trim and edit your posts.

Every bit sent via the net takes a small amount of energy
to transmit. Multiply that by the number of news servers
and it adds up.

And yes, ya done good Dennis.

Hello,

the CO2 in soft drinks is released to the atmosphere again when these
drinks are consumed. This CO2 is exhaled after some time.

Bye

**Nope. Just a succinct one. Here, OTOH, is a typical response from me
(after an idiotic post from you):

**I don't need to prove it. It has been well documented:

**I note you have STILL failed to answer any of my questions, nor have you
commented on anythng I said in any substantive way. Your idea of a cogent
argument is to refuse to respond to questions and points of logic and resort
to pitiful sniping.

You are a failure.

Considering how little demonstrable formal education tweva had his
response is not surprising , when queried about education the reply was
studiously avoided offering a fair indication of having nothing to back
the claims bar fallacious innuendo and blurred badly modelled results
based on poor information and guesses designed to support a result
rather than obtaining a truthful result and hence by omission maintain
the funding model and income .

**Nothing YOU can say will suggest that the science is wrong. You are far
too stupid to be able to mount a credible argument. You have failed, thus
far, to do so.

**You're not very bright. You continue to snipe, rather than presenting a
rational, reasonable argument. Look at how Mr Liebermann conducts himself.
You're nothing like that. You are a failure.
