Answer 2

The Earth is called "the water planet" because it has approximately 14,108 cubic kilometers of water. However, 97.5% of this water exists in the seas, and nearly all of the remaining fresh water is locked up in the Antarctic or Arctic ice caps or as groundwater. Therefore, we can freely access only the water in lakes (0.007%) in rivers (0.002%). Of these, lakes are the best "available freshwater source on the Earth's surface." Lakes are valued as water sources and for fishing, water transport, recreation, and tourism.
