Why would the tax be infinite? At worst it needs to be equal to the cost of removing enough carbon from the atmosphere to offset the emissions.
Planting trees (and removing the carbon they capture from the carbon cycle, e.g. by turning them into biochar) probably doesn't scale to the amount of carbon we release.
