Most of Earth's water (about 97%) is saltwater found in oceans, which is not suitable for drinking or irrigation without desalination. The remaining freshwater is mostly locked in glaciers, ice caps, and underground aquifers, making it inaccessible for immediate human use. Factors like pollution, contamination, and uneven distribution also contribute to the scarcity of usable 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......
Most of Earth's water is in the oceans, which account for about 97% of the planet's water. The remaining 3% is found in ice caps, glaciers, groundwater, lakes, rivers, and in the atmosphere.
Water, through processes such as erosion, transportation, and deposition.
The ocean
Approximately 0.005% of the Earth's water is found in its soil. This water is vital for plant growth and sustains terrestrial ecosystems.
Salt Water
Salt Water
no. but most of earths fresh water is.
the ocean
Salt Water
because
Because most of the water is salt water
2
Evaporation from the ocean
Partly because most of earths water is salt water!
97% is all salt water and 3% is water used by people.
Water is evaporated from oceans, seas, lakes, rivers.
