Answer:

Freshwater is limited, while salt water is plentiful

Explanation:

Water is considered a renewable resource because it goes through the water cycle over and over again. Freshwater however is accountable for only 3% of Earth's water. Humans use around 70% of that water for agriculture and the other 30% for other purposes, such as consumption. Though it's considered renewable because it goes through the water cycle, this also causes it to be limited because of evaporation. Every year, due to evaporation, the Earth loses about  9,467 cubic meters of water every year. Though this seems like alot, on a bigger scale, if you account for the Earth's oceans, it is quite a small amount. It would take millions of years before evaporation caused an international drought.
