Abstract

Water used to be regarded as a classic renewable resource, on the reasonable grounds that (in most places, at least) it has a tendency to keep on falling from the sky. However, in recent decades concerns have begun to mount that water is being used consumptively (in some places, at least). This article examines the concept.
