Currently, glacierscover about 10% of Earth's land. Glaciers covered about 32% of Earth's land during the maximum point of the last ice age.
Around 69% of Earth's fresh water is stored in glaciers.
Yes, Greenland is covered by an ice sheet, not a valley glacier. The Greenland Ice Sheet is one of the largest ice sheets in the world and covers about 80% of the island's surface. Valley glaciers are smaller glaciers that form in mountain valleys.
The total amount of water on Earth is estimated as about one and a third trillion cubic kilometers (1.36 x 109 km3). Of that, the vast majority ... about 97% ... is in the oceans. If you're asking instead "how much of the Earth's surface is covered by water", it's between two thirds and three quarters: about 71%.
No, Earth's water could not completely cover Pluto's surface as Pluto is significantly larger than Earth's oceans combined. Pluto's surface area is about 16.7 million square kilometers, while Earth's total ocean surface area is around 361.9 million square kilometers.
