Explanation:

C. Encourage couple to have more children

Paul R. Ehrlich focused on reducing population growth. Encouraging couples to have more children would increase the population growth rate, not reduce it to zero. Chemical castration (though controversial), taxing additional children, and creating a Department of population and Environment are all strategies that could potentially work towards reducing population growth.
