how much carbon dioxide is used to make soda pop every year?

Question

global estimate better, but US figures are ok

Answer 1

I have seen figures as high as 1.5 million metric tonnes annually. This seem really high, but so does 148 billion 2 liter bottles of carbonated beverages per year in the USA alone. (see second site).

This does not add to the global warming greenhouse gases because it is recycled. This carbon dioxide is originally extracted from the atmosphere.
