I think some European countries are on the right path: the tax money is not gone, just distribute it equally (as the externalities of emissions hurt everyone in the same way), and the poor will be fine. If only we could roll out such a scheme globally, it would be the just and definite solution for climate change.

Your individual emissions are above the global average? Tough luck. Are they below the global average? Congratulations, your higher purchase price for iphones is more than compensated by the payout everyone worldwide gets every month.
