Approximately 70% of the Earth's surface is covered in water. So why is water considered a limited resource?

• The greenhouse effect is causing most of the world's freshwater to be trapped in the atmosphere

• Most of the water is salt and not safe to drink. Of the freshwater most is unavailable because its frozen, hard to get or polluted

• Each year, more freshwater is being trapped in icecaps located at the North and South Poles

• Global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions will likely cause Earth's oceans to evaporate
