**Assignment**

Explain how Earth's axial tilt, its orbit, and how sunlight is spread out work together to create the seasons. Make sure to show the difference between
_axial tilt_ and Earth's
_distance from the Sun_, and explain why distance is not the main reason for seasonal variations.

Discuss how seasonal changes influence Earth’s energy budget.
