How does Igloo work?

By MindStick

Igloos work by trapping heat inside the structure.

They are formed of compacted snow, which is a good insulator due to its many air pockets.

Heat is trapped in the air pockets, preventing it from escaping to the outside.

It is a traditional Arctic winter shelter for the Inuit people.

Igloos can also hold food and water. The igloo's cool temperature helps to keep food fresh and water from freezing.
