A). An appeal to emotion is used to make people feel guilty if they do not support the legislation.

B). A false dilemma is used to claim that legislation is the only way to protect the environment.  

D). A bandwagon appeal is used to suggest that every American wants to help endangered species.

Explanation:

Fallacies are described as the flaw in the reasoning of an argument that makes it invalid or sound.

In the given passage, the author emotionally manipulates the audience to gain acceptance from them instead of logically persuading them. The statements like 'All Americans realize...If Congress fails to address this today, then we all lose' makes the audience feel guilty while going against the legislation. The a<u>uthor develops a false dilemma that misleads the readers regarding 'legislation being the only way to safeguard the environment</u>.' The bandwagon fallacy is displayed when the author makes an assumption that 'every American wish to help endangered species' on the basis of the majority which may not be valid all the time. Thus, <u>options A, B, and D</u> are the correct answers.
