Etymology
'climate-regulating' originates from the combination of 'climate' and 'regulate', where 'climate' refers to the weather conditions prevailing in an area and 'regulate' means to control or maintain the rate or speed of a process.
'climate' comes from the Greek word 'klima', meaning 'region' or 'zone', and 'regulate' comes from the Latin word 'regulare', meaning 'to control'.
Initially, 'regulate' meant 'to control or direct', and this meaning has been extended to include the control of climate conditions.
