Excuse me: that's "over (a) population explosion"

Another option might be "control in regards to/in terms of..."

As for "outbreak," this is often used in regards to disease (e.g., an outbreak of bird flu), and may not be as appropriate as "population explosion" in this particular context.

Suerte, Mariana!

agree  Rachel Fell: control over the population explosion likely to occur at this stage, which makes it the most crucial/best one for attacking them (slightly too long, perhaps, but somethig like that...) - is it my imagination, or is the original badly phrased?"somethiNg"!

  -> This is exactly how I understand it, as well. I agree; it's poorly phrased. Even in English, I prefer to include something like "in regards to the likely/probable population explosion" ("slightly too long, perhaps, but somethig like that" as you suggest).
agree  Paula Hernández
