Two facts about resources:
☆ They are naturally scarce
☆They take time and resources (cost) to be replenished
Consumption as a factor of economic activity has a negative impact on resources in the long term because of point 2.

I see very little relevance in the local vs regional impact discussion. Countries do get less autonomous when consumption exceeds resources, but then net imports can buffer the consequences of this.
