00:00No, el E.U. no está banando CO2 en bebidas.
00:06Un mensaje de screenshot de la Comisión de la Comisión web circulando online
00:10dice que el E.U. no está banando CO2 en bebidas, bebidas y minerales de CO2 en bebidas.
00:17It dice que el Comisión está haciendole con CO2 en bebidas
00:20a reducir alrededor de 400 millones de tonos de combustibles anuales a parte de su FIT for 55 programa.
00:26Anyone flouting the new rule would be subject to fines of up to €50,000 per litre,
00:31according to the supposed web page.
00:33However, a search of the European Commission's website shows that no such statement exists
00:38and the E.U.'s FIT for 55 package doesn't include any proposal to ban CO2 in drinks.
00:44FIT for 55 is a climate and energy initiative designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
00:48by at least 55% by 2030, compared to levels in 1990.
00:52Some of its measures include CO2 emissions standards for vehicles,
00:56moving towards zero emissions from new cars and vans by 2035,
01:00but there's nothing about banning carbonation in drinks.
01:03There's no credible source out there that corroborates this claim.
01:06The screenshot of the alleged Comisión press release also doesn't fully look the part,
01:10showing that it's not real.
01:12In general, it doesn't look like any recent press releases
01:15and uses a photo of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen from 2019,
01:20rather than a current one.
01:21The Commission's logo is blurred and low resolution,
01:24and certain elements seen in real press releases are missing,
01:27such as the language selection box and a publication date.
01:30There's also a typo in the headline.
01:32Comisión is supposed to be spelt with two S's,
01:35and its official name in German is the Europäische Kommission,
01:39not the Europä-Kommission.
01:41EU initiatives are often the target of misinformation campaigns,
01:44as the measures contained within are either misinterpreted
01:47or deliberately exaggerated to whip up hysteria.
