(the ailing planet) how can the rapid growth of the population be checked
Answers
Answer:
Development is the best contraceptive, because fertility falls as incomes rise, education spreads, and health improves. But development may not be possible in the future due to rising numbers.
One of the suggestions given by people is sterilization- like how cattle are sterilized. But everyone agrees that in order to make sure that people choose to have less babies, there has to be an element of coercion, like the one-child policy previously followed in China.
My suggestion is that old people who are not contributing to society should be euthanized and that there should be an abundance of contraceptives available for both women and men, along with spreading of awareness and giving sexual education at a young age to all people. I also believe that abortion should be a right for all women who do not want to have children.
