False causality is the fallacy that since two events have happened, one caused the other. In logical terms: A, B therefore A --> B.
Examples:
"I have cooked dinner". "The television is on". "Therefore, cooking dinner turns the television on".
"The number of pirates have been steadily decreasing, while the temperature of the earth has been slowly increasing. This is proof that pirates cool down the earth, hence global warming is a hoax."
