The sentences that should be removed or revised to eliminate logical fallacies and improve clarity in the statement are:

"Everyone supports the transition to alternative energy sources, so it's guaranteed to happen."

"Replacing fossil fuels entirely will happen effortlessly and in a short period."

How to explain

The first sentence presents a fallacious argument based on an assumption of universal agreement, while the fourth sentence presents an overly optimistic and unrealistic claim about the ease and swiftness of replacing fossil fuels with alternative sources without considering the complexities and challenges involved.

Hello. You did not present the full text or answer options for this question, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

Logical fallacies are information that seems true, but is incorrect, because it is determined from generalizations, and irrational, defective and false reasoning. In this case, the best way to remove the possible logical fallacies of a text is, reading it and removing any kind of generalization and statements without correct and verifiable foundations, which present real evidences about its veracity.
