Much of this video shows how many people do not understand how the seasons are caused.  There is a small section at the end that attempts to clarify the cause.

This video considers peoples’ understanding of gravity and through these ideas shows that it is a force of attraction between masses.  Some of the detail is covered in other Veritasium videos.
