Malthus's prediction that our human population would eventually reach a point where we cannot sustain ourselves did not occur. Why?
A) Dramatic reductions in fertility rates brought an end to population growth before the crisis point was reached.
B) Malthus was wrong; human populations can grow indefinitely.
C) Technological advances unforeseen by Malthus increased the carrying capacity to a greater extent and faster than predicted.
D) The two world wars and the AIDS crisis caused such massive mortality that the human population has stabilized.
E) Humans continue to find ways to enhance environmental quality, thus enabling more people to be supported.
