I think elevation impacts the temperature at which water boils because...

As the altitude increases the pressure in the atmosphere decreases. This means that when the atmospheric pressure is lower, your water will reach it's boiling point faster. (AKA: at a lower temperature.)

Why does the amount of heat received by places far from the equator become less?
Ainat [17]
If the Earth were a disk with its surface perpendicular to the rays of sunlight, each point on it would receive the same amount of radiation. <span> However, the Earth is a sphere and aside from the part closest to the sun, where the rays of sunlight are perpendicular to the ground, its surface tilts with respect to the incoming rays of energy with the regions furthest away. Hope this answers the question.</span>

This little pieces, if inhaled, can gradually result in the development of a lung cancer. Because of what the research had shown, lot of people and institutions were in panic, so urgent and quick measures were taken in order to change the water pipes and the roofs.
