Less than 1% of Earth's water is readily accessible for human use, with the majority being saltwater in the oceans and large amounts stored in ice caps and glaciers. This limited availability highlights the importance of conservation and sustainable management of freshwater resources.
Less than 1 percent of Earth's water is ready for use by humans. Earth is approximately 71 percent water but of all this water only about 2.5 percent is fresh water with the rest being salt water and thus not fit for human consumption. Of the 2.5 percent fresh water the majority of this is frozen in the polar icecaps, present in soil moisture or deep underground where it is out of reach.
Water covers about 70 percent of the Earth's surface.

Approximately 0.005% of the Earth's water is found in its soil. This water is vital for plant growth and sustains terrestrial ecosystems.
Water makes up about seventy five percent of the Earth's surface.
3 percent is useable to humans and land animals
