Answer 1

Answer:

Hey Emily!!

FIRST QUESTION :  Where is the majority of the planet’s freshwater located?

ANSWER :  D. Polar Ice Caps ( and glaciers )...Studies suggest that about 68% of all freshwater reserves on Earth are found here...in rivers and lakes is just 0.3%!

SECOND QUESTION :  Why is water scarcity increasing on Earth?

ANSWER :  D. More land is being farmed. AKA Over-Farming...the irrigation systems which are used on modern-day farms continue to work the whole day NON-STOP, so over-usage of water for excessive farming reduces the total amount of available and suitable drinking water...

HOPE THIS HAS HELPED YOU! :>
