A shortage of CO2 could take the fizz out of beer and other sparkling drinks this summer, just as the World Cup and barbecue season get under way. The UK has only two plants producing carbon dioxide and one is closed for maintenance, threatening to leave drinks makers1 high and dry. "It's already stopping production," said Brigid Simmonds, head of the British Beer and Pub Association.
