The video explains how Earth's tilt and orbit around the Sun cause the seasons. It describes how the tilt affects sunlight in different hemispheres, leading to variations in temperature and day length. A flashlight experiment demonstrates how sunlight angles impact temperature. The video also covers the moderate temperatures of spring and autumn and uses a graph to show yearly temperature patterns in Toronto. The conclusion reinforces the link between Earth's tilt and the seasons.
