The earth is located in a so-called Goldilocks zone. This means that we are orbiting the sun in a distance which allow moderate temperatures on earth. Too far away, and earth would freeze, too close and earth would heat up and our atmosphere would evaporate.

For example, Venus and Mercury which are the two planets closer to our sun are much hotter than the earth.
