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

Best you can argue is one is a higher tax than the other.
Nah...

A Tariff is a duty on imports.

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.

Taxing energy intensive imports and exempting some U.S. export goods from carbon taxes could level the playing field with U.S. firms in energy-intensive, trade-exposed sectors and competitors from countries that don’t have a carbon tax.”

“American manufacturers doing the right thing on climate are at a disadvantage compared to high-polluting foreign competitors … Our Clean Competition Act would give domestic companies a step up in the global marketplace while lowering carbon emissions at home and abroad.

American manufacturers actually win’ under an E.U. border carbon tax because ‘they will pay less than China, which in turn will move the supply chains to the United States of America,’ Whitehouse said.”

The most efficient production would inflict all externalities externally with no compensation.

I'm just saying I like money.

So I should get money and they should get externalities.
