"If it was not captured and used this way, then it would just be released straight into the atmosphere anyway"
If industries that capture and purify the c02 do so to prevent it entering the atmosphere but the fizzy drink industry buys this captured C02 knowing it's customers will ultimately release it into the atmosphere anyway doesn't that defeat the (environmental) point of capturing it in first place.
If carbon tax is meant to help reduce the C02 in the atmosphere why is it only applied to things that are almost impossible to live without like fuel and energy but not the things we could easily live without like fizzy drinks. Why? because it's not meant to change our behaviour to help the environment, it's meant to tax behaviours that are near impossible to change.
