Why has groundwater use increased over time

The principal reason for the increase of groundwater use is the increasing population. Urbanization and pollution have both contributed to an increase in the use of groundwater.

Urbanization has concentrated large populations in areas that might not have direct access to surface water or that might have a larger demand for freshwater than surface water can supply.
