Answer: C. More growth results in more waste.

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase in the growth of the human population will lead to the production of more amount of waste. This is due to the fact that human beings are dependent upon natural resources for meeting the daily requirements so as to sustain their lives. The increase in the population will increase the dependency on resources. The resources like water, wind, fossil fuels, vegetation, wildlife used by the human society will generate biodegradable wastes. Also the man made resources such as plastics, metals will generate huge amounts of non-biodegradable wastes which will pose difficulty in disposing off.
