According to National Geographic over 99% of the freshwater ice in the world is located in two places: the 5.4 million square mile ice sheet covering Antarctica and the slightly smaller (656,000 square miles) sheet on Greenland.

Ice covers about 10% of the Earth’s land mass and about 7% of the oceans.

Here is a fun Ice Fact from TopTenz.net:

Before the advent of freon-based refrigeration in the early 1900s, ice was the only way to keep things cool (and food from spoiling). While there were ice-making machines in use in the mid- to late-1800’s, they were mostly for commercial use – beef packing plants and the like – and also used dangerous chemicals such as ammonia and ether.

But ice was still needed for the home, and commercial ice harvesting was a huge business around the turn of the century. The process was every bit as labor-intensive as one would imagine it to be without the use of modern tools- gigantic ice picks and saws, along with horses pulling around what amounted to huge ice plows, were common for larger jobs, which could employ dozens of men for months at a time. Ice was then conveyed mechanically or by river to an ice house.

Thousands of small, private ice houses- along with dozens of much larger, commercial ones- dotted the American landscape at this time. Ice houses were double-walled, tightly insulated structures packed with sawdust and other insulating materials, capable of keeping large amounts of ice through the warm months. One of the larger ice houses, on the shore of Connecticut’s Bantam Lake, was the length of two football fields, contained fourteen compartments, and could store 112 million pounds of ice. Much of this ice departed daily by train, for the larger cities including New York- up to twenty cars full per day.

Thank you for all your support today during our 4th of July Sale. We had such high demand that we sold out early and the machine never really recovered. We sold out 5 times during the day because there was not enough time for the ice machine to catch up. We hope you enjoyed your ice and celebrated a safe and memorable 4th of July. We look forward to serving the Fallbrook area for many years to come with fresh, convenient and inexpensive ice.

Update: We were selling again and got another rush. Out of ice again. Try back in about 2.
