~97% of all water on Earth is salt water.
~70% of all fresh water is locked up in icecaps and glaciers. Another ~30% is below ground, although this is for the most part drinkable, it might not be accessible.
This leaves 0.3% of the world's fresh water, or 0.09% of all water on Earth.
Scary isn't it?

What makes most of the Earth's water undrinkable?
Most of the Earth's water is undrinkable because it is either salty ocean water or contaminated with pollutants, making it unsuitable for human consumption. Desalination processes can make salty water drinkable but are expensive and energy-intensive. efforts to reduce pollution are needed to make more water safe to drink.
Why is most of Earth's water is undrinkable?
Most of Earth's water is undrinkable because it is in the form of saltwater in the oceans. Saltwater is not suitable for human consumption without desalination, which is a costly and energy-intensive process. Additionally, other sources of water, such as ice caps and glaciers, are frozen and not readily available for drinking.
Why cant you use most of the Earths water?
Most is salty sea water. Well acually most of earths water is ocean water (which is sea water and very salty) but if we pay for pumping system to take the salt out it will cost alot of money so that is one answer but another is that half of earths water is locked away in big glaciers we cant get to......
