Earth's Uneven Cooling: Pacific Chills Faster, Reshaping Planet's Interior

• Research indicates Earth is cooling unevenly; the Pacific Ocean region is losing heat faster than other parts.
• Oceanic crust's thinness, newness, and surrounding cold water facilitate faster heat loss compared to the thicker, older continental crust.
• This uneven cooling influences plate tectonics, mantle convection, and seismic activity, potentially explaining the Pacific Ring of Fire's high activity.
• The internal cooling process is extremely slow and does not directly affect surface weather or climate, which are driven by external factors.

Why It Matters: Earth's uneven cooling shapes its geological activity and future evolution.
