It may also help to clarify that it is a tax swap. Yes – one form of taxation is indeed increased. But the added revenue through a carbon tax can be used to decrease other forms of taxation.
Why only for gasoline? It could also help to support renewable power generation if any carbon emission is taxed.
And it should be similar for cars using natural gas, for example.

That's silly. The problem is the consumption of beef, not using a bicycle. (Full disclosure: I like beef.)
That's ridiculous. Human breathing is completely accounted for in the carbon cycle.
All the secondary effects would be caught if you tax every fossil fuel usage at the source.
The goal is to de-carbonize our economy not de-meat or de-cycle. Everyone going up the latter branches is trying to fear monger the carbon tax attempt.
