Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The statement specifically mentions that population growth and its negative consequences "do not just stem from natural causes." This eliminates choices A, D, and E. There is no mention of gender roles, so choice C is also incorrect. Therefore, choice B is the best option as it directly addresses the point made in the statement.
