Would it be true to say that all the water (salt and fresh) on the Earth is as much as there will ever be? Although it gets recyled through natural processes, this is all we have- it's finite.
Practically, yes. At least, King Tut, were he alive today, wouldn't notice a difference. We are said to be receiving regular deliveries from space, but although they're big numbers on paper, they're really...well, a drop in the ocean

In view of population growth (? +30% by 2050), there's serious concern about the limited amount of fresh water in the world, the fact that it's not equally available to all, and the potential for suffering and conflict which that portends. But that's another matter.
