Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Gulf Stream is an ocean current that carries warm water up the eastern coast of the United states and Canada and on to western Europe.

Detailed explanation-2: -The North Atlantic Drift, in contrast, is largely driven by thermohaline circulation. By carrying warm water northeast across the Atlantic, it makes Western Europe and especially Northern Europe warmer and milder than it otherwise would be.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Gulf Stream affects the climate in Britain by bringing warm water from the Caribbean to North West Europe. This keeps the climate in Britain warmer than other places at a similar latitude.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Gulf Stream is a powerful ocean current that brings warmer waters up from the Gulf of Mexico into the North Atlantic Ocean. It extends all the way up along the eastern coast of the United States, where it then turns towards northwest Europe.
