Answer:

The distribution of water on the Earth’s surface is extremely uneven. Only 3% of water on the surface is fresh; the remaining 97% resides in the ocean. Of freshwater, 69% resides in glaciers, 30% underground, and less than 1% is located in lakes, rivers, and swamps. Looked at another way, only one percent of the water on the Earth’s surface is usable by humans, and 99% of the usable quantity is situated underground.

It is evident from the fact that of the available percentage of fresh water 69% water is found in the glaciers, 30% is ground water and only 1% is ponds, rivers located in and swamps. From the given figures it is very much evident that only a very tiny fraction of fresh water is available to the people. Fresh water distribution is highly uneven in the world because of global warming and pollution.
