Over exploitation of water leads to its scarcity which happens in case of all natural resources. The biggest danger with over exploitation of water is that the water table in any region is reduced to such an extent that ultimately all moisture is lost from the ground. Slowly and gradually, this leads to deterioration of soil and its capacity to retain moisture, ultimately turning it to sand. There are many live examples in many parts of India that because of this very reason, many fertile farmlands have turned to barren deserts.

Over exploitation can lead to resource destruction,
Over exploitation anywhere is often accompanied by detrimental environmental side
effects, such as poor water quality, and reduced groundwater flowing to springs, streams, and
wetlands.

Exploitation of water leads to scarcity. It has come to that stage now where you need to save water.

Water is free gift of nature. We can exploit dirty water . There is no harm in it. We must not exploit pure drinking water. It is wastage of money as well as wastage of consumable product. Population is increasing but the provision of pure and consumable drinking water is decreasing. Everywhere it is polluted and dirty. Lets not do that.
