Climate can affect the type of house you live in by influencing the need for insulation, heating, and cooling systems. In colder regions, houses often have thicker walls and insulation to retain heat, while in warmer regions, houses may have better ventilation and shading. Climate also influences the type of clothes you wear, with people in colder regions wearing thicker layers to stay warm, and people in warmer regions wearing lighter, breathable fabrics to stay cool.
