Hola Sara,
La expresión que indicas es un metáfora. Significa que lo que hagas no va a añadir nada ("pour water into the sea"). Nada cambia. El mar permanece igual.
En resumen: i) Hacer algo inútilmente, sin resultado positivo. ii ) Dar algo a quien tiene abundancia de ello.
Similar expression in English: carrying coals to Newcastle
