What about a price to CO2 (with equivalence calculation) emission? This would automatically make the (beef) meat significantly more expensive. And it would essentially just put a price on something which costs a price later anyway.

What about a price to CO2

Until that price shows up at the supermarket it is irrelevant.

Wouldn't that happen pretty quickly? I don't think meat producers would just happily cover for that extra fee.
