What is most of the earths fresh water locked up in?
Most of the Earth's fresh water is locked up in glaciers and ice caps at the polar regions. This frozen water plays a crucial role in regulating global climate and sea levels.
Fresh water in frozen glaciers and ice caps makes up what percentage of the total amount of fresh water on earth?
Fresh water in frozen glaciers and ice caps accounts for about 69% of the total amount of fresh water on earth.
