Yes. The cold climate at the south pole is the result of the vast amount of ice near it, and the fact

that it is located in the middle of Antarctica, which is well known to be a very cold place. In contrast,

the equator is a line that was intentionally drawn through some of the hottest places on earth, in a

shameless attempt to attract tourist dollars.
