That's not necessarily a true blanket statement.
The surface temperature at various places on the earth ranges between, let's say,
-100 to +120 Fahrenheit (-88 to +50 Celsius).
On the moon, the surface temperature on the 'night' side is about -240 F (-150 C), but
on the 'day' side, it's about +225 F (+105 C) ... hotter than boiling water.
The earth's atmosphere absorbs heat from the sun and distributes it around the planet.
With no atmosphere on the moon, the surface takes full heat of the sun when the sun is up,
and radiates it all away into space when the sun is down.

Earth's diameter is about 3.7 times bigger than the Moon's Earth's volume is about 50 times greater than the Moon's Earth's surface area is about 14.29 times greater than the Moon's Earth's mass is about 81.3 times greater than the Moon's
Why does earth exerts a greater force than the moon?
There are two reasons: The Earth is more massive than the Moon, and the Earth is closer to you than the Moon. If you were standing on the Moon, then the force of gravity due to the Moon would be greater because you are closer to the Moon.
What is the current trend of Earth's warmer temperatures?
The Earth is warmer than in previous natural cycles.
What would the Earth's climate be without a moon?
The moon causes tides, but tides are not part of the climate. The moon is not particularly involved in the Earth's climate. Moonlight does not have enough energy content to make the Earth warmer.
What is bigger the moon or the earth?
Earth, by far.
What if the moon was bigger than earth?
