Answer:

Only about 1% of the freshwater on Earth is easily accessible.

Explanation:

Freshwater accounts for a minimal proportion of water resources on planet earth. About 70 percent of the world surface area  is covered by water, but only  about 2.5 percent of this mass of water is fresh. The remaining are marine or salt water. Amazingly, just about 1 percent of this  freshwater is easily accessible. The other 1.5% is trapped in glaciers and snowfields.

This underscore the need for water conservation on the planet since fresh water is a scarce resource and people living in many areas have no access to fresh water.
