The moon.

The Earth loses its kinetic energy due to all forms of friction acting on it (ie, tides, galactic space dust, solar wind, space weather, geomagnetic storms, etc). Because of this, there is an extra second added to the time it takes the Earth to fully spin roughly every 100 years.

What causes the moon to speed up or slow down slightly in its orbit?

The moon's orbit can be influenced by various factors, including gravity from other celestial bodies, such as the sun and Earth. The gravitational pull from these bodies can slightly speed up or slow down the moon's orbital speed. Additionally, the shape of the moon's orbit around Earth is not a perfect circle, which can cause variations in its speed as it moves closer or farther away from Earth during its orbit.


Does the Moon's movements around earth have anything to do with the seasons of the year?

Tides yes, seasons no. The Earths tilt causes the seasons as we orbit the sun.
