The tilting of the Earth on its own axis is very important for the survival of the species on Earth. It is due to this tilting of Earth on its axis that cause change in seasons on the planet. This tilting enables the two hemispheres of earth to be inclined towards the sun once in every year one by one. This is the reason why seasons are opposite in the north and the south hemisphere. When India faces winter, the Australian are enjoying summer and vice versa. Seasonal variations play very vital role in sustaining life on Earth.
Because the axis is tilted, it shifts parts of the world closer and further from the sun at times. When the a certain region is closer to the sun, it is in summer, which is a great time to farm and get crops, which is needed for eating and sustaining survival.
