While the oceans cover about 70% of the surface area, they actually hold 96.5% of all the water on Earth. Another 1% of the ground water of the Earth is saline, leaving only 2.5% fresh water. Of the 2.5% fresh, most of it is frozen in glaciers or snow and only about 1% exist in liquid form. Almost all of that fresh water is ground water with only a tiny bit in lakes and streams.
