Answers

1. 783 million people struggle to find clean water for there daily lives and yet there life depends on it. 2.5 billion people don't have accesses to a toilet or sink. 
2. I think that 65% of the water in the world is fresh and 35% of the water in the world is salt water. I think this because almost all of the different types of water in the world is fresh water.
   
3. I think that 50% of fresh water in the world is air water, 25% percent is ground fresh water 12.5% is surface and 12.5% is ice fresh water.
   

In the world tons of people have a lot of trouble because most of the water is salt water is 97.24% and people can not drink salt water. Then the fresh water divided- air is .001% of the water in earth water, fresh surface water is 0.01% of the earths water, all of the fresh ground water in world is 0.61%, and all of the fresh ice water is in the world is 2.14%. So there is only 2.761% of fresh water in the world. To me that has wowed me and shown me how lucky I am to live next to a great lake, and how bad I feel for the others who aren't as lucky as my class and I.
