How can a convection current transfer energy around the globe?
-- The sun's energy doesn't really need to be transferred "around the globe",because every point on the globe is on a direct line of sight from the sun forexactly 50% of the time.-- Solar energy is transferred from place to place, however, by the large-scalemotions of heated and cooled air masses, referred to technically as "wind".
