Lets just say A LOT!
There isn't a way for scientists to gage this because it depends on how many people are driving and realeasing gas fumes into the air, and depends on many other things like factories schedules, and other things.
Most of the earth's freshwater is in the form of glaciers and ice caps, which are inaccessible for human use. Additionally, much of the remaining freshwater is stored underground in aquifers or is too polluted for consumption. This leaves a relatively small percentage of freshwater readily available for human use.
Approximately 0.3% of all freshwater on Earth is readily accessible for direct human use and for use by land organisms. This water is found in rivers, lakes, and groundwater sources that are not too deep or polluted for practical use.
Most of Earth's freshwater is not available for consumption because it is locked up in glaciers and ice caps, or is located underground in aquifers that are difficult to access. Additionally, much of the remaining freshwater is polluted or contaminated, making it unsafe for human consumption.
Earth is about 18.2 times more massive than mercury.
If Earth's oceans were much smaller, the climate would likely be more extreme due to reduced heat absorption and distribution. The smaller oceans would also affect weather patterns, leading to drier and more unstable conditions in many regions. Overall, the impact on Earth's climate would be significant and difficult to predict accurately.

Probably every single bit of the surface water, to one extent or another. Answer: The answer is dependent on your conditions for "polluted" If potability (drinkability) is the criteria, then all of the Earths seas and oceans are polluted due to the salt content. If the presence of any levels of salt or organic material is a concern (i.e. is the water chemically pure water) all water is polluted. About 70% of our Earth's surface is covered by water. However:97.5% of all water is salt water, only 2.5% is fresh waterAbout 70% of fresh water is frozen in Antarctica and Greenland;Of the remainder most is underground or soil moisture,This leaves about less than 1% of the world's fresh water (~0.007% of all water on earth) for direct human uses. COMMENT: But that's not the question, the question is 'what percentage of freshwater is polluted? Is it 25%, is it more? Less? Would you prefer to use a pie graphic...showing a third or more? We didn't ask for the answers we were given and we'd really appreciate it if you simply answer the question instead of answering every else EXCEPT the question. - Jane Streeter.
* The Earth has oxygen * The Earth is the perfect spot in space * The Earth is protected Not: * Gets polluted * People use Sun Energy * To much oil is used
Mmm I would say Britain is more pulluted because of it's high urban population. However Athens as an exception is exceedingly polluted, but London is polluted 2. I think both Cities have improved vastly though. But because Greece is much more rural, I would say it is less polluted.
the earth is made up of alot 'mas', or 'more', than what we currently know, such as will this earth be cleansed of every defilement.
About 2% of the total water on Earth is polluted to the point that humans cannot drink it.97% is ocean water, and a lot of water is locked in the ice caps or aquaphors far underground, so this is a significant amount. Only about 1% is drinkable for humans.
Because the river is polluted and and can get many diseases such as: malaria and much more

well,i think waterways are polluted cause we use them too much.
The earth rotates on its axis every 24 hours. How much more "real world" do you want?
Just save the earth!! Why would you not want to save your planet? it is much better to live on a clean healthy planet than a polluted dead one. it is better for life because the air will be clean, there will be less disease, and more natural beauty. Save the earth for the sake of life itself.
It very much depends on the area; some groundwater is polluted but other groundwater is pure.
