There is only 3 percent of water that is fresh and other is saline water that cannot be used for any purpose.


However, there are much technologies of purification that allows a person to purify this saline water in order to extract usable water.


However, it is still not 100 percent purified to use.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, most of that three percent is inaccessible.

Over 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in ground water.

Only about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps.

Of all the water on Earth, more than 99 percent of Earth's water is unusable by humans and many other living things!
