Approximately 70% of Earth's freshwater is located in ice caps and glaciers, mainly in Antarctica and Greenland. This frozen freshwater is not readily accessible for human use.
In a way, 72% of Earth approx. is covered in water. Only 3% is freshwater. So only 4% of earth is freshwater. 2/3 of that 3% is locked in ice caps. So 2.7% of earths water is frozen. Only .75% of Earths water is in rivers. That is hardly 1% of space on Earth. The rest is frozen in Glaciers, which is .25%. Only .03% of Earth is made up of Glacial ice.
Freshwater makes up about 2.5% of the total water on Earth, while saltwater makes up about 97.5%.
Water covers about 70 percent of the Earth's surface.
Approximately 68.7% of the freshwater on Earth is frozen in polar ice caps, glaciers, and permanent snow.
Water covers 70% of the Earth's surface.
About 70% of the world's freshwater is used in farming.
around 70 something percent but im not sure so anyone else should edit it to give u a more exact answer dude u were like SO wrong its not even funny only like 3% of earths water is freshwater there u go 70% is way off she/he was talking about FRESHWATER
70%
Earth is made up of about 70 percent water, but less than 3 percent of that water is fresh water. Fresh water is found in ice caps, glaciers, streams, and rivers.
70% percent of the earth is covered in salt water, and 2.5% of freshwater but less then 1% of that fresh water is available for human use!!

Earth has a lot of water. 70% covers the Earth with salt water. 3% of Earth has freshwater. And 27% of Earth comes with land.
Approximately 70% of the world's freshwater is used for farming, primarily for irrigation to grow crops. This makes agriculture the largest consumer of freshwater globally.
about 70% of the earth is covered with WATER!!!!!!!!!
Not very much. Freshwater makes up only about 2% of the entire Earth.
The majority of earth's freshwater (about 70% of it) is stored in glaciers and ice caps, mainly found in Antarctica and Greenland. The rest of earth's freshwater is found in lakes, streams, rivers, etc.
