The Short Answer:
 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 qvinter in the Northern
 Hemisphere.
