Question

Much of the decline in fish species can be attributed to the advent of "long line fishing," where long fishing lines bearing thousands of hooks are trailed behind a single boat. if current fishing practices continue, the world can expect serious economic disruptions and food shortages in seafood-dependent developing nations. In general, avoid seafood consumption as vegetarianism has more health benefits. It's also much easier to obtain and isn't cruel or destructive. We can greatly reduce overfishing by creating a network of undersea reserves, and reducing fishing industry subsidies. Read the excerpt from the persuasive essay, "Stop Overfishing." Which of the following statements is a logical fallacy? A. Much of the decline in fish species can be attributed to the advent of "long line fishing". B. We can greatly reduce overfishing by creating a network of undersea reserves. C. In general, avoid seafood consumption as vegetarianism has more health benefits.

Answer 1

The answer is C, because you can still do "long line fishing" as there is plenty of fish in the sea(not trying to be funny), but switching to vegetarianism for everyone because it has more benifits is illogical, as some people are allergic, or they simply can't stick to that type of lifestyle.
