I’m not saying it’s wrong, but this graphic is very difficult for me to understand. Is there any geographical significance to the location of the water blobs? No, right? But they also don’t include saltwater which is most of it. Right?

The big bubble is all water, frozen, sea, etc. The small bubble is all fresh (rain clouds etc), rivers, lakes. The smaller is lakes and rivers only.

I don’t think the big bubble includes the ocean.

There are three bubbles.
