What causes seasons and Why we have them.

Do you ever think about how we have seasons? I used to think about that all the time, but now I know how they work.

Seasons are caused on the tilt of the Earth’s axis. Half of the earth is leaning towards the sun meanwhile the other side is faced away from the sun, but as the Earth spins, the other side of the earth gets sunlight.

When it is Summer, the days get longer and the nights get shorter, but in winter, the days get shorter and the nights get longer, isn’t that confusing? The days are longer in summer because the Earth’s Southern hemisphere (Where I am) is faced towards the sun which direct heat, meanwhile the Northern Hemisphere is having winter.

The seasons all depend on the sun, the tilt of the Earth’s axis and the way the Earth rotates. Without seasons the Earth would probably be boring and cold. There would be no fun too.
