Only one percent of the worlds water?

...is fresh water.

No. One percent of the world would be totally incorrect if there were a test that would ask you such question. The correct answer would be 3/4. If the water were to be one percent, than that means water will only cover 1/4 of the world and land will cover 3/4 of the world. When you look at a photo of Earth, you can see that most of Earth is covered blue. Blue stands for water. Another way you can think positive is that,think what you would do if you wasted all the water there is on Earth. And you are in the the middle of the winter. How would you get water if there is no rain avilable.You can't get rain to come in the winter time. It will be snow by the time it falls from the sky. This is why we have so much water to last.
