The Earth's seasons are primarily caused by the tilt of its axis, not by the distance from the Sun. The tilt, which is about 23.5 degrees, affects the angle and intensity of sunlight that different parts of the Earth receive throughout the year. As the Earth orbits the Sun, this tilt causes variations in temperature and daylight hours, leading to the changing seasons. The difference in distance from the Sun has a minimal effect on seasonal changes.
