Is it true global winds move heat from the equator toward the poles?

No. Heat does move with the wind, but the wind is not mostly towards the poles, as this map demonstrates. The winds going towards the equator all bend to the West because of the Coriolis effect.

Where do global winds move warm air?
Toward The Poles
How global winds move warm air toward the?
Poles.
Define global winds?
Global winds are winds that blow From the poles, in which they act as a heat transfer system. Global winds are due to the unequal heating of earths surface
In what direction do global winds and currents flow near the equator?
westward
Are global winds produced by the movement of air between the equator and the poles?
"hot air rises at the poles becasue the sun is sending off direct sunlight to this area. the air moves outward to the poles. since the poles are reviecing indirect sunlight they are very cool so the air drops to the ground.
What effect do global winds have on climate?
Global winds drive heated air from the equator to the poles. It also drives colder air from the poles to the equator.
What are the Global winds that flow toward equator?
Global winds and currents near the equator flow east to west. The global wind belt located north and south of the equator is called trade winds.
Where do global winds move warm air?
Toward The Poles
How global winds move warm air toward the?
Poles.
Are global winds are produced by the movement of air between the equator and the poles?
yes
How global winds are created by angle at the sun strikes different points on earth?
global winds are created by the unequal heating of earths surface. when the sun is at an angle, like in the poles, where it covers a large area, it heats less. then winds blow from the equator to the north pole and creates global winds.

What is a belt of steady winds blowing toward the equator?
Trade winds!
What are winds that blow from the east from the horse latitude toward the equator?
Trade Winds
Winds that flow toward the poles in the opposite direction of the trade winds are called what?
Westerlies
What are winds called that blow toward the equator?
The trade winds (northeast or southeast depending on which hemisphere you're in) blow towards the Equator.
Where do the warm winds near the equator move?
toward your mom?
