About 69% of Earth's fresh water is stored in glaciers and ice caps.

In a way, 72% of Earth approx. is covered in water. Only 3% is freshwater. So only 4% of earth is freshwater. 2/3 of that 3% is locked in ice caps. So 2.7% of earths water is frozen. Only .75% of Earths water is in rivers. That is hardly 1% of space on Earth. The rest is frozen in Glaciers, which is .25%. Only .03% of Earth is made up of Glacial ice.
Approximately 68.7% of Earth's fresh water is stored in ice caps, glaciers, and permanent snow.

Glacial ice is almost 100% fresh water. When the ice melts, the fresh water pours into the oceans, making the salinity go down.
All the great rivers of Asia are fed by glacial melt and about 40% of the world relies on these rivers for drinking and other uses.
Antarctica is where ninety percent of the Earth's ice is found
