China instituted a one child policy some years ago where they forbid their citizens from having more than one child in an attempt to reduce overpopulation. What other ways do you think governments should control people for the betterment of the environment?

Governments can promote education around environmental awareness and sustainability, incentivize green energy options and public transportation over personal cars, and create green spaces and wildlife protection areas to increase the natural habitat. They can also invest in technologies that reduce carbon emissions and invest in eco-friendly initiatives for communities to participate in. All of these initiatives help protect the environment and reduce harm to ecosystems in the long run.
