A lot, I heard Antarctica is really thirsty.
70 % is water and 90% is ice
Antarctica's fresh water cache is about 70% of all the fresh water on earth -- frozen in its ice sheet that covers 98% of the continent.
Antarctica's ice sheet contains about 70% of the earth's fresh water.
There isn't much drinking water because almost all of the water is frozen. The snow can be thawed to give fresh water. The rainfall in Antarctica is very low.
Seventy one percent of earth's surface is water -- salt water. The ice sheet in Antarctica holds about seventy percent of earth's fresh water.
It is estimated that about 70% of the earth's fresh water is frozen in Antarctica's ice sheet.
If you are in the water in Antarctica, generally, you'd step onto the beach to get out of the water.
Believe it or not, with all of that frozen water around, Antarctica is considered to be desert.
Antarctica receives little rainfall in 1 year. About 35-50 centimeters of water is received in Antarctica. It may sound strange, but Antarctica is also considered a desert, a landscape/ region that receives little or no precipitation.
Antarctica isn't known for having any problems with water.
The number you want is about 70%.
