The tilt of Earth’s rotational axis toward or away from the sun causes _________

Earth’s axial tilt, which always points in the same direction during Earth’s orbit of the sun, results in the Northern Hemisphere tilting toward the sun from June to August. In the same manner, the Southern Hemisphere tilts toward the sun from December to February. Summer takes place when a hemisphere tilts toward the sun, and winter takes place when a hemisphere tilts away from the sun.
