Less than 1% of Earth's water is fresh water that is suitable for drinking and use. The majority of this fresh water is found in glaciers and ice caps, with the remaining amount found in lakes, rivers, and underground aquifers.
Approximately 68.7% of the fresh water on Earth is locked up in glaciers and ice caps. This frozen water plays a critical role in regulating global climate and sea levels.
Most of Earth's fresh water is not usable because it is trapped in glaciers, ice caps, and underground aquifers. Additionally, pollution and contamination from human activities make much of the remaining fresh water unsuitable for consumption without extensive treatment.
The Earths surface is covered by 80% water. 97% is saltwater and 3% is fresh water. Of this 3%, 68.7% of the available drinkable water is locked up in ice frozen near the north and south poles making it unaccessable to most of the world. See the related link for more information.
About 2.5% of the world's water is fresh water, but only about 0.5% is easily accessible for human use. This includes water from sources such as lakes, rivers, and groundwater. Efficient management and conservation of this limited resource is crucial to ensure sustainable access to clean drinking water for all.

During warmer weather, bald eagles might drink fresh water, but they often get most of their liquids from their diet.
Approximately 68.7% of the fresh water on Earth is locked up in glaciers and ice caps. This frozen water plays a critical role in regulating global climate and sea levels.
It is not safe to drink salt water because it can lead to dehydration and other health issues. Drinking small amounts of salt water can be harmful to the body. It is recommended to drink fresh, clean water for hydration.
because most of the earths water is salt water and there us only 2.5% of fresh water on the earth =D
Technically, all the water on the Earth is drinkable. Desalination plants are constantly modifying salt water into fresh water.
