I vaguely remember a similar question where subsidies were considered problematic, so I might lean towards B as the answer.

The auctioning of pollution permits seems like a valid approach, but I feel like legal controls might be the odd one out.

I'm leaning towards A, taxes on the consumption of the product. Hitting the consumers where it hurts might be the best way to discourage pollution.
