I always thought that solubility increases with temperature. Why do cold beverages foam less then? Shouldn’t they release even more of the soluted CO2?

Temperature is just a measure of how much energy is in the system. A carbonated beverage with more energy is going to be more energetic and more likely to release the co2.
