According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
A) fallacy of the single cause
B) reversing causal direction
C) genetic fallacy
D) slippery slope
This is an example of a genetic fallacy. A genetic fallacy is a fallacy or irrelevance. It is defined as a fallacy that is solely based on the origin of something rather than on the individual context of the situation. This typically transfers a good or bad reputation to the current context based on its origin. In this example, the speaker knows that the depletion of tuna is a consequence of overfishing. Therefore, it is true that the origin of the problem is the consumption of tuna. However, it is a fallacy to argue that any type of consumption is equally bad.
