Heat transfer can never be stopped, it can only be slowed or reflect away. The purpose of insulation is to impede this natural process. In hot weather, you want to stop heat from being transferred into the building, and in cold weather you want to stop it from being transferred out.
Convection is the mechanism responsible for the vertical transport of heat in the troposphere while horizontal heat transfer is accomplished through advection. The exchange and movement of water between the earth and atmosphere is called the water cycle.
