Detailed explanation-1: -The tilt of the Earth’s axis is important, in that it governs the warming strength of the sun’s energy. The tilt of the surface of the Earth causes light to be spread across a greater area of land, called the cosine projection effect.
Detailed explanation-2: -The greater Earth’s axial tilt angle, the more extreme our seasons are, as each hemisphere receives more solar radiation during its summer, when the hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, and less during winter, when it is tilted away.
Detailed explanation-3: -Basically, we would not have any seasons. Earth would be warm at the equator and cold at the poles. The poles would still experience the most impact because the sun would always be low on the horizon.
