Global Conveyor Belt

Real World Example

Imagine the frustration of trying to cool down a large room with just a small fan. The fan needs to move air around efficiently to make sure the entire space feels comfortable, much like the global conveyor belt that circulates ocean currents to regulate Earth's climate. Just as the small fan distributes air to even out the temperature throughout the room, the global conveyor belt distributes heat and nutrients across the world's oceans, ensuring that different regions maintain a stable climate and support marine life.
