Tax land use and tax raw material use. (i.e. aluminum in a can). Eliminate just about all other taxes.
Don't tax "capital" in the form of money, certainly don't tax labor.
Why punish productive effort? Punish use of resources. This will make people strive for efficiency and go a long ways towards eliminating problems like pollution, encourage recycling etc.
