The earth is tilted 23 degrees in the orbit plane. This results of lower elevation in the winter and greater elevation in the summer.
Simple answer is the sun. At least our distance from the sun. We have winter because we are farthest from the sun during the winter season. Which obviously means we orbit closer in the summer.
The maximum elevation of the Sun occurs at the summer solstice, and the minimum at the winter solstice. During an equinox, the Sun is directly above Earth's equator. Sorry, but if you are Savannah Schoenherr, DO NOT COPY
In that case, it is basically summer in the northern hemisphere, and winter in the southern hemisphere.In that case, it is basically summer in the northern hemisphere, and winter in the southern hemisphere.In that case, it is basically summer in the northern hemisphere, and winter in the southern hemisphere.In that case, it is basically summer in the northern hemisphere, and winter in the southern hemisphere.
The position of the sun at midday on a winter's day is lower in the sky compared to midday on a summer's day. This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis, which causes the sun's angle to change throughout the year. In winter, the sun's lower position results in shorter days and less direct sunlight.
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.
The sun reaches its highest elevation at the moment that summer begins.
Because our elliptical orbit is closest to the sun in summer than in winter, when it is winter we are above the sun and when it's summer and we are below the sun
As the the Earth rotates around the sun, it becomes colder and when that happens there is snow.
Sunset times occur later in summer and earlier in winter due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. In summer, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, leading to longer days and later sunsets. In winter, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, resulting in shorter days and earlier sunsets.
The seasons change because of the Earth's tilt. When it's summer, the tilt will be facing more to the sun. When it's winter, the tilt will be facing away from the sun.

It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis. Many people believe that the temperature changes because the Earth is closer to the sun in summer and farther from the sun in winter. In fact, the Earth is farthest from the sun in July and is closest to the sun in January!
revolution of earth around the sun causes the variation in the temperature..

not sure
because wen its winter we are closer to the sun and wen we are farther away we are in summer
the tilt goes towards the sun, the seasons chang from winter to summer
