Carbonated drinks industry and C02 production

Further Details: 

Has anyone ever calculated how much C02 is released into the atmosphere via carbonated drinks? There are very few places left where one cannot buy a can of soda, and we know that global production of fizzy drinks is considerable. Does that translate into significant amounts of C02 release, both in terms of the dissolved gas in the drink itself and the manufacture and transport of same?

I have noticed that every August, hundreds of sparrows in my neighbourhood congregate in a half dozen trees nearby, every evening for one to two weeks. The noise they make is tremendous! What are they doing?
