Why does winter in Africa summer in America?
America is Northern hemisphere, Africa is Southern. The Earth is tilted at its axis. When the Northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun they get summer. The Southern, which is simultaneously tilted away, gets winter. Then they change. South tilts towards, and get summer, North tilts away and get winter.
