In general, population control represents any of several approaches to managing the [[population]] growth rate of [[human]]s.  The driver for efforts at population control is concern that levels of population sustainability are rapidly being approached.  Some consider this concern to be a [[liberal]] [[socialist]] [[myth]]. Also, "sustainability" is very difficult to define in practical terms. Due to criticism, the myth promoters have adapted their position with a new ideological term. Population control has been changed to the wide promotion of 'reproductive health'. The mainstream [[media]] have heavily promoted the consequences surrounding "overpopulation" and "excessive" population growth.
