It would be a completely false statement to say that English economist Thomas R. Malthus predicted that there would not be any problems resulting from population growth. He predicted just the opposite of what is being written in the question. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option.
Thomas Malthus (1766-1834), was an English economist and demographer who is famous for developing a theory of population growth contained in the "Essay on the principle of population" of 1803, in which he stated that the population of the Earth would have uncontrolled growth that would generate problems for individuals such as wars, hunger, and diseases. He argued that while the population increased, food production did not increase in the same way, causing chaos. Therefore, it can be said that Thomas Malthus predicted some of the problems of population growth. So, the correct answer is False.
