“Nature is bountiful, which is why logging should be strictly regulated.” Which logical fallacy is illustrated in this sentence?

A. Ad hominem
B. Non sequitur
C. Post hoc ergo propter hoc
D. Red herring

The logical fallacy illustrated in the given sentence is D. Red herring.

A red herring is a fallacy that distracts from the main issue by introducing irrelevant information or arguments. In this case, the statement begins by asserting that "nature is bountiful," which may be seen as an irrelevant statement when discussing the topic of logging regulation. The argument seems to be shifting the focus away from the main point and using the unrelated notion of nature's abundance to support the need for strict logging regulations. This diversionary tactic is characteristic of a red herring fallacy.
