It's not hard to figure out how to price them in. It's hard to get such taxes put into law. A CO2 tax is very simple. Just add a tax to a fossil fuel as they're extracted that matches the cost of pulling the CO2 they release from the atmosphere. Now you only need a global consensus to actually do it.

I agree 100%. I live in Finland; our neighbour, Sweden, was early with carbon tax. Our tax/govt structures are otherwise very similar. Sweden's carbon footprint per capita is roughly 50% of ours.
