Magnesium is an alkaline earth metal, not a halogen.

It is an organic compound with a halogen atom (F, Cl, Br or I) bonded to any carbon.
CO2 + H2O makes carbonic acid which is used in soft drinks.
Magnesium is not soluble in carbon tetrachloride.

It is an organic compound with a halogen atom (F, Cl, Br or I) bonded to any carbon.
Millions of organic compounds contain carbon, oxygen and hydrogen !
There are various chemical pollutants responsible. These pollutants are the halogen compounds of carbon.
Magnesium is a strong enough reducer to "steal" oxygen from other compounds such as carbon dioxide. magnesium reacts with CO2 to produce magnesium oxide and elemental carbon. 2Mg + CO2 --> 2MgO + C
With sufficient heating, MgCO3 -> MgO + CO2, magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide.
CO2 + H2O makes carbonic acid which is used in soft drinks.
Carbon particles alone do not cause pollution, when carbon combines with other elements (oxygen, chlorine, hydrogen, etc.) that the compounds can destroy the ozone.
