How does uneven heating of earths surface results in convection currents?

Where the air is over a parts of the Earth's Surface that is warm, the air warms. Warm air rises and as it rises it is replaced by cooler air that is sucked in from parts of the Earth's surface which are comparatively cooler. This movement causes a cyclic circulation of the air called win and weather.

Moisture in basement?

Although basement moisture can be fueled by water leakage, it is usually an atmospheric condition caused by humidity rising as warm air cools and shrinks in the cooler basement area. Dehumidifiers work well to control this.


Is true that once the energy has left earths surface it can not be reabsorbed?

No. It is not true that once energy has left the earth's surface it can not be reabsorbed. Clouds overhead act like a blanket and reflect energy back to the earth's surface. As a result deserts are usually cooler at night than other areas at the same latitudes.
