The earth is a sphere, the further you go from the equator where its hottest (closest to sun) the colder it usually is (arctic and antarctic are furthest from the sun)

The latitude of an area plays a significant role in determining its climate. Areas closer to the equator, which have lower latitudes, tend to have warmer climates as they receive more direct sunlight throughout the year. On the other hand, areas farther from the equator, with higher latitudes, experience cooler climates due to the angle at which sunlight reaches the Earth's surface.
