How much of the Earth is water?

Surface area, I think is about 70%.

Good answer, surface area is about 70%, but this amounts to about 1/50th of 1% of the planets mass. There is a theory published by a Japanese group in 2002 that there may be as much as five times as much water dissolved in the lower mantle than there is sloshing about on the surface. If they are right the proportion of the world that is water will have to be revised upwards - to 0.1%
