Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
The tilt alters how directly the sun's rays strike the earth. For instance, when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it is summer as the sun's rays strike more directly and are stronger and warmer. At the same time, the rays strike the southern hemisphere at a shallow angle and travel further through the atmosphere, so cooling down, before striking the earth. This means that it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
The tilt in the earth's axis produces the seasons. Due to the tilt, the sun's rays cover a smaller area of the Northern hemisphere in summer, making the rays more direct and hotter . They are diffused over a large area in winter making for less heat from the sun. If the earth were not tilted the sun's rays would be equally direct at all times.
Seasons are caused as the Earth, tilted on it’s axis, travels in a loop around the sun each year. For example, summer happens in the hemisphere tilted towards the sun, winter happens in the hemisphere tilted away from the sun. The poles stay cool because they are never in a direct path of sun light.(those are just examples they’re not really part of the answer.)
The DIRECTION of the tilt does NOT change as the Earth revolves around the sun.

The Earth's rotational axial tilt causes the seasons.
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
The axial tilt of the Earth's spin (relative to the ecliptic, or the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun) causes our seasons.
Earth orbits the Sun in a tilted-over position. Spring and Fall are the two seasons when Earth's tilt is halfway between forward to the Sun and rearward to the Sun.
The Earth's tilt and orbit cause seasonal temperature changes.
The Earth's rotational axial tilt causes the seasons.
The Earth's tilt is what causes the seasons.
This tilt is what causes the seasons.
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
it is the tilt of the earth in the suns direction
The axial tilt of the Earth's axis of rotation (spin) relative to the plane in which it orbits the Sun means that as it orbits the Sun it successive presents on or other pole towards the Sun. This causes the Earth's climatic seasons and the changes in day length experienced at high latitudes.because
The earth's tilt causes an uneven heating of the earth. The uneven heating due to the tilt causes the different seasons throughout the year.
It causes the seasons.
The angle of the earth's tilt from the sun causes the Earth's seasons.
If the sun orbits the earth then the earth will not tilt and we wont get seasons, also because the sun will take longer
The earth's tilt causes an uneven heating of the earth. The uneven heating due to the tilt causes the different seasons throughout the year.
Seasons are caused by earth's tilt on it's axis. As earth revolves around the sun, it's tilt causes different amounts of sunlight to reach the surface in certain areas. That's what causes the seasons.
