What brings about the season?

The Earth's tilt in relation to the Sun, so if you live on the northern hemisphere, from June to September the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun creating Summer. Meanwhile, during the same months the southern hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun creating winter.


How does the fact the earth axis is tilted affect us?

The axial tilt affects the Earth by its seasons and it's Equator. When the Earth is at a certain point in its revolution around the sun the, say like a face, Northern Hemisphere leans back so that the Southern Hemisphere is exposed more to the light and therefor warmth. At another point in the Earth's revolution around the sun the opposite happens: the Northern Hemisphere leans in and gets more warmth--summer is here. This season flucuation also effects the Equator.


What season does the sun moves slower?

Complicated question. The sun doesn't move, as such, but it kind of wobbles a bit as the planets revolve around it. Only Jupiter has the sun wobble outside of it's own surface, so the wobble isn't much, either. I can assume that you may be referring to the earth's movement around the sun. In that case the earth is closer to the sun (perihelion) when it is winter in the northern latitudes, so it would move quicker, slower when the earth is at aphelion, in the northern hemisphere's summer.
