The tax will be based on the amount of CO2 you emit. High cardio jobs such as construction, delivery and politiciking will get tax credits to cover the cost. CrossFit practitioners will pay full cost, possibly even an excessive penalty. There will be a standard amount, but any smartwatch meeting the appropriate govt standard can be used to itemize if you are more sedentary.

Under this tax regime as long as the homeless person makes sure to promptly file the appropriate forms each year they should not be at risk of jail time.

( Being the internet, this is all a joke )

In 2022 we are very serious here on the internet. But welcome back! You must've been gone for quite some time.

I think this is a pretty silly argument, considering how many taxes don't apply to poor people at large.

They apply by keeping them poor, you may not pay them while poor, but they put a large weight on becoming not poor.

To give a serious answer to an unserious question, it's taxed upon adding carbon to the carbon cycle. So, at time of hydrocarbon extraction/importation of an untaxed product.

Is this an argument for or against "meat" consumption?

They will be sacrificed to appease the god Gaia and prevent future climate change catastrophies?
