Pollution from human activity is changing the atmosphere.

  • Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide (CO2).
  • Bad agricultural practices emit methane (CH4), a powerful greenhouse gas.
  • Deforestation has removed the trees that used to take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The cause is a change in how the Earth is tilted on its axis. The tilt of the Earth on its axis during the course of its trip around the Sun changes during different times of the year.

When it is summer in North America, the Northern Hemisphere is the closest to the sun, making the Southern Hemisphere the farthest away from the sun. The opposite true during the other half of the year.

The world is a globe and it spins around on an axis, so almost everywhere can get sunlight except the ones that are very cold like Antarctica or somewhere else. Those places only have 2 seasons. The Equator is always the closest to the sun, and as such, there are really no discernible seasons unless you use rainfall as a distinction. In parts of the Equator, there is a "wet season" and a "dry season." But in other parts which are surrounded by ocean, it is rather wet all year round.

Physical and chemical changes are responsible for most of Earth's many changes in physical appearance. Deforestation changes Earth's appearance for example.
