Prokaryotes were the only kind of life on earth approximately 2 billion years ago. They existed long before eukaryotes ever came into existence at all.
Less than 1 percent of Earth's water is ready for use by humans. Earth is approximately 71 percent water but of all this water only about 2.5 percent is fresh water with the rest being salt water and thus not fit for human consumption. Of the 2.5 percent fresh water the majority of this is frozen in the polar icecaps, present in soil moisture or deep underground where it is out of reach.
Approximately 67.8% of earth's surface is covered by salt water while only 3% is covered by fresh water. In total, the earth's surface is covered by 70.8% of water.
Homo sapiens have existed on Earth for approximately 300,000 years.

Life has existed on Earth for approximately 3.5 billion years, which accounts for around 75% of the total time that the planet has existed (about 4.6 billion years).
Landmasses occupy approximately 29 percent of the Earth's surface.
The mass percent of oxygen is approximately 21% in Earth's atmosphere.
Humans have existed for approximately 0.2% of the time since Earth was formed around 4.54 billion years ago. The earliest humans are believed to have appeared around 200,000 years ago.
Approximately 30% of the Earth's surface is covered by soil.
Approximately 21% of Earth's atmosphere is composed of oxygen.
The hydrosphere covers approximately 71% of the Earth's surface.
Humans have existed for only about 0.2% of Earth's history, which is approximately 200,000 years out of Earth's 4.5 billion-year history. This indicates that humans are a relatively recent addition to the planet.
Land covers approximately 27 percent of Earth's surface. This includes continents and islands.
