In the winter, our part of the Earth tilts away from the sun, and another tilts towards it, that is why we have winter when, say, Australia has summer.

As the Earth moves around the sun, its tilt is adjusted to the sun depending on where we are. (The distance of the Earth to the sun is also a factor.
