  • 25% of the planets surface is land
    75%of the surface is water and it is rising

    ------------------------------...

    97%of the Earths water is salt

    fresh water is only 3% of all the Earths water
    most of it is beyond out reach

    now much ice is melting and running into the seas fresh water lost for ever.

    STORAGE or Location of % of the fresh water
    ice and glaziers 74%
    groundwater 800 meters + 13.5 %
    groundwater less than 800meters 11.o%
    Lakes 0.3%
    soils 0.006%
    Atmospheric in circulation 0.0035%
    rivers 0.03%


    frozen land or permafrost is not included and represent an unavailable storage of 40%

    so of the 3% about 11.6 ,is easily available to us ,in rivers, lakes and ground water surface aquifers,more and more of this is becoming contaminated 0% 0 Votes
