4) The ocean made the Earth habitable Temperature regulation Over 90% of the heat from global warming is absorbed by the ocean. It helps spread this heat around the Earth using ocean currents, which move like a giant conveyor belt. These currents carry warm water from the tropics to the colder poles, helping to keep our planet’s temperature just right.
