No one can deny the fact that ever-growing population means greater environmental hazards. Recently, one of the senior Catholic Church prelates stated that birth control can be the ultimate solution to climate change. However, people tend to overlook this deep-rooted issue.

Cardinal Peter Turkson, the leading advisor of Pope on climate change issue, suggested that the voluntary birth control can create a huge impact on the betterment of environmental stress. According to the BBC news, Cardinal Turkson is believed to have played a significant role in the drafting of "Laudato Si", the Pope's encyclical on climate change.

In Paris meet, he also mentioned that Church was never against the family planning done in a natural way. However, climate change is becoming a deadly ecological disaster for all the living beings.

To save the world, people now need to act fast without keeping any inhibitions in mind. Therefore, the Catholic Church has wistfully adopted a more dynamic role on the issue. The Church authorities are now encouraging churchgoers to join global climate initiatives before the COP21 starts.

The Church has also increased its involvement with the negotiation procedure of UN climate meet. As per the ABC News report, providing contraceptives to people in developing countries could help combat climate change by slowing population growth, experts said Friday.

Various research studies over the internet show that more than 200 million women all over the world want to use contraceptives. However, either most of them do not have the access to use it or their partners do not allow them to use.

The scenario results into more or less 76 million unwanted pregnancies each year.Experts think that lifestyle issues are always interrelated to the condition of our surrounding atmosphere causing global warming.

If those women get the access to contraceptives, the rate of population growth might be slowed down gradually. As per The Huffington Post report, "More population pressure is creating a lot of burden on the environment -- as well as on health care systems, education systems and unemployment," YetnayetAsfaw, the vice president of Strategy and Impact at EngenderHealth, PHE Ethiopia's umbrella group, articulated.

Family planning or birth control initiative taken by Governments worldwide would alleviate several environmental change impacts like lack of food, pollution, scarcity of water and energy sources and more. Providing food, shelter and security to ever-growing population is becoming difficult for the governments. So, people should accept the fact that birth control can be the only way to control the messed up ecology.
