∙ 13y agoAbout 3 percent (2.75%) of the total water on Earth is fresh water, and as much as 75% of that is locked up as ice in glaciers and polar caps. Most of the rest is ground water. The water vapor in the air constitutes 4 times as much water as all of the surface freshwater on the planet (0.04 % vs 0.01 %).
