Well today in our class we have been disscussing our current ideas on what we think causes the seasons. No one in our class was able to come up though with the idea that was most accpeted. That idea is the one in which our Earth is at a 23 degrees tilt. and the direction of the sun and it is either direct or indirect. This is what causes the seasons i will post more on this but i have to go

I think that the seasons change in relation to the orbit of the earth around the sun. The father the country is from the equater the colder it gets. I know that this is because the equater is hit the most directly by the sun so maby its just by the way the earth happens to be rotating at that sertain season. So if its winter the sun is not hitting that place very directly and when its summer the sun hits that spot directly, almost.
