Two-thirds of the world's fresh water is locked away in glaciers and ice caps, primarily in polar regions and high mountains, making it difficult to access for human use. Additionally, much of the remaining fresh water is found in underground aquifers, which can be challenging and costly to extract. Factors such as pollution, climate change, and inefficient management also hinder the availability of fresh water for consumption and agriculture.
