Some 70% of the world’s surface is covered by water but out of 1.4 billion square km of it – 97.5% is salt water and only 2.5% is fresh. If we could squeeze all the world’s water into a five-liter canister, fresh water would not fill in even a teaspoon.
Some Facts!
That is cold – Coldest Place on Earth!
The coldest temperature officially recognized on Earth was recorded in Vostok, Antarctica at a -89.2 degrees Celsius.
They say it has been colder but never official. Now to make you feel really cold this is the warmest temperature ever recorded at the same site.
The warmest recorded temperature at Vostok was -19 degrees Celsius.
That is a heat wave for Vostok!

Trillion and Trillion and Trillion – Oh who cares!
A million seconds is around 11 days.
A billion seconds is around 32 years.
And a trillion therefore is around 32,000 years.
Now put that in dollars…
The USA National Debt is going to be 13 trillion dollars real soon.
32,000 years X 13 = 416,000 years to pay of the debt if you paid 1 dollar a second and accrued no more debt.
This is a rough estimate and is off several billion dollars but give or take a few thousand years who cares!
