What is a potential negative aspect of virtual-water trade?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Exporting regions may face excessive pressure on water resources

Virtual-water trade can reduce pressure in an importing country, but production for export may intensify irrigation, groundwater withdrawal or river diversion in the exporting region. If extraction exceeds recharge or harms ecosystems and local users, the trade creates serious environmental and social costs. Trade does not eliminate water use; it relocates the production-related use. Therefore A is the valid potential drawback.
