Decoupling pressure on water resources from economic growth is key to sustainable development because of the uneven geographical distribution of global water resources and the cost of transporting water. In regions where water resources are scarce and the rate of withdrawal higher than the rate of replenishment through the hydrological cycle, there is a danger of depleting the resource leading to unsustainable resource use.
