It isn't true. Only 1.2 percent of three percent Earth's fresh water can be used as drinking water.

Most of our drinking water comes from rivers and streams the rest is locked up in glaciers, ice caps, and permafrost, or buried deep in the ground. Most of our drinking water comes from rivers and streams.

Answer: c. Greenland

The two ice sheets on Earth today cover most of Greenland and Antarctica. During the last ice age, ice sheets also covered much of North America and Scandinavia. Together, the Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets contain more than 99 percent of the freshwater ice on Earth.

Approximate distribution is: 91% in Antarctica. 8% in Greenland. Less than 0.5% in North America (about 0.1% in Alaska

Water covers about 71% of the earth's surface. 97% of the earth's water is found in the oceans (too salty for drinking, growing crops, and most industrial uses except cooling).
