I believe the answer is: Fundamental attribution error
Fundamental attribution error refers to the type of error that generally make a person automatically believe that what people do reflect what they really are. This often make the one who make the error seen as naive or gullible, allowing them to become a target of manipulation.
Let's look at all the options:
a. drive their cars more.
-no, this is false.In fact cars increase pollution: so the opposite is true.
b. burn more fossil fuels.
-this is also false, burning fossil fuels are one of the main reasons for our pollution
c. use more public transportation.
-this is true! using more public transportation will make people use less cars, and cars increase pollution.
d. build more factories.
-this is also false, factories contribute to pollution.
Fact!
Its a fact because it says "it is"
An assumption is a guess
A belief is what you believe
