Question

1. which among the following is not a recommendation by paul r. ehrlich to reduce the growth rate to zero?

a. chemical castration
b. taxing additional child
c. encourage couple to have more children
d. creation of department of population and environment

Explanation:

Paul R. Ehrlich focused on reducing population growth. Encouraging couples to have more children would increase the population growth rate, not reduce it. Chemical castration (a form of birth control - though controversial), taxing additional children (a deterrent for large families), and creating a Department of population and Environment (to manage population - related issues) are all measures that could potentially help in reducing population growth rate to zero.

Answer:

C. Encourage couple to have more children
