How does wind impact climate?
A
Helps move the sun’s energy
B
Winds move rain clouds
C
Winds make the earth warmer
D
Wind brings winter
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Many daily weather patterns depend on wind. A coastal region, for instance, undergoes changes in wind direction daily. The sun heats the land more quickly than the water. Warm air above the land rises, and cooler air above the water moves in over the land, creating an inland breeze.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Earth’s climate system depends entirely on the Sun for its energy. Solar radiation warms the atmosphere and is fundamental to atmospheric composition, while the distribution of solar heating across the planet produces global wind patterns and contributes to the formation of clouds, storms, and rainfall.

Detailed explanation-3: -The movement of air masses above the earth’s surface helps to create wind, and help to move the air masses that predict our weather. The wind helps to shape the atmosphere and affects weather patterns from the upper atmosphere to the ocean surface.

Detailed explanation-4: -The transfer of light energy from the sun into heat energy on the earth makes molecules move faster. Warm air and water molecules rise and move away from the equator and towards the poles, while cooler polar air and water moves away from the poles and towards the equator.
