Please excuse my ignorance – I’m not a scientist but always wonder: there’s too much CO2 in the atmosphere. There have been successful trials with extracting it from there. CO2 goes into drinks. And yet it is artificially created for that specific purpose. I even heard claims that beer manufacturers have been running short on CO2 due to supply issues and Covid and what not. Can you explain?

There is no easy way to trap CO2 from the air itself. Doing so is energy and resource intensive… Which defeats the point.
Doing it at the source (as in, the chimney etc.) is viable, but still technologically difficult (CO2 isn’t a particularly reactive gas).
