  1. you by the sounds of      it,

    and you also are mostly made of water

    99 molecules out of     a 100 are water

    we the plants, animals and the planet it self are mostly water

    this is the geneal distribution.

    ------------------------------...

    25% of the planets surface is land

    75%of the surface is water and it is rising

    ------------------------------...

    97%of the Earths water is salt

    fresh water is only 3% of all the Earths water

    most of it is beyond out reach

    now much ice is melting and running into the seas fresh water lost for ever.

    STORAGE or Location of % of the fresh water

    ice and glaziers 74%

    groundwater 800 meters + 13.5 %

    groundwater less than 800meters 11.o%

    Lakes 0.3%

    soils 0.006%

    Atmospheric in circulation 0.0035%

    rivers 0.03%

    frozen land or permafrost is not included and represent an unavailable storage of 40%

    so of the 3% about 11.6 ,is easily available to us ,in rivers, lakes and ground water surface aquifers,more and more of this is becoming contaminated

    overpopulation of an extra 70 million people a year (increasing all the time )and expanding agriculture ,which uses 70% of available potable water supplies ,has brought the good(sweet) water suplies to critical levels ,some countries have been in trouble already quite a while .

    now climate change and desertification because of irresponsible agriculture ,overgrazing and deforrestation is damaging world fresh water production .

    it is a good reason for concern and if we do not rectify matters by changing agricultural methods ,reforrest ,stop deforrestation,become more economic with water use ,stop producing more people ,stop wasting and contaminating water, we will be in serious trouble all round

    and could end up looking like Mars


  2. There has always been water on Earth .It comes from the atmosphere through rain ,snow, condensation, dew,we have land under the sea and rivers ,land can be re-claimed by man.There are  also underwater worlds  . What is the question.
