H2O

The global situation
• Less than 3% of the world’s water is
fresh – the rest is seawater and
undrinkable.
• Of this 3% over 2.5% is frozen,
locked up in Antarctica, the Arctic and
glaciers, and not available to man.
• Thus humanity must rely on this
0.5% for all of man’s and
ecosystem’s fresh water needs.
