Aquifer Overdrafting

“What happens when enough water is siphoned from an aquifer to permanently damage it?”
Groundwater is taken from aquifers for a variety of human purposes. However, when too much is taken out, it can lead to permanent damage and even destruction of the aquifer. Aquifer Overdrafting is something that needs to be actively monitored and acted upon to avoid such catastrophic impacts.
