Both are fruit.
Both increase the cost of manufacturing in different parts of the world resulting in reduced carbon footprint.

A Carbon Tax is an excise tax on the use of a pollutant; an input cost.
The carbon tax aims to reduce the carbon footprint; the conventional tariff does not and increases it by promoting less-efficient production.
