Z.P.G. is a British science fiction film that was released in 1972, in the wake of Paul R. Ehrlich's best-selling book The Population Bomb. The film concerns an overpopulated, very polluted future Earth, whose world government executes those who violate a 30-year ban on procreation. "Z.P.G." stands for "Zero population growth".
The movie stars Oliver Reed and Geraldine Chaplin and was directed by Michael Campus.
