That probably depends on what "large" is for you.
There is much more salt water than fresh water in the world, about 90% of water is salt water, but there are some very large fresh water lakes.
The important point, however, is that there is not an unlimited amount of freshwater and that thoughtless or careless human activity can contaminate portions of it, making it unusable.
The largest amount (by volume) of freshwater above ground is Lake Baikal in Russia. It contains about 20% of the surface freshwater. However, almost all of the world's freshwater is underground.
The majority of fresh water on Earth is located in glaciers and ice caps, which make up around 68.7% of the world's fresh water. This fresh water is stored in polar regions like Antarctica and Greenland. Additionally, a significant amount of fresh water is stored underground in aquifers.
the Great Lakes are fresh water.( the largest fresh water lakes in the world.)
No, Groundwater makes up about twenty percent of the world's fresh water supply, which is roughly equal to the total amount of freshwater stored in the snow and ice pack, including the north and south poles.
Most fresh water is locked up in the form of ice caps and glaciers, primarily in Antarctica and Greenland. These ice formations hold a large portion of the Earth's fresh water, with Antarctica alone containing about 70% of the world's fresh water resources.
The ice sheet that covers 98% of the Antarctic continent contains about 60% of the earth's fresh water, according to Wikipedia.
3% of the world is made of fresh water
The largest hydrologic compartment containing fresh water is ice caps and glaciers, storing about 68.7% of the world's fresh water. This frozen water plays a crucial role in regulating global climate and sea levels.
most water in the world is not fresh it is salt but in the north and south poles are where fresh water is located
Antarctica's water is mostly fresh, with large ice sheets that hold about 70% of the world's fresh water. However, there are also areas of salty water in the form of sea ice and surrounding the continent.
Since the water that melts is classified as "fresh". the polar ice represents about 50% of the world supply of fresh water. Overall the polar ice is about 2% of all water.
Lake Erie is one of the Great Lakes which are all Fresh Water the Great Lakes are the largest fresh water lakes in the world.
