Answer:

Neo-Malthusian Perception

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the belief of the neo-Malthusians, the resources on the earth are only sufficient to support a finite and specific size of the population.

They are of the belief that the growth should be controlled and limited resources are the reason for the decreased growth of the economy and the population thus must be kept in check.

Thus over population and rapid rise in the population will result in the increased pressure on the scarce resource which will further lead to wars, , destruction of the rain forest, famines and other environmental problems world wide like global warming, etc.
