What if the Earth Was Tilted at 90 Degrees?

Views of Our World
National:
The nation and its government would be in a panic trying to figure out what to do.
Individual:
You could be in either complete darkness or light and your family might be packing their bags and getting ready to migrate closer to the Equator due to extreme seasons at the Earth's poles.
Global:
There would be extreme seasonal changes/ temperatures and each pole would alternate between six months of light and dark.
Regional:
Many people that live in New England will try to travel farther south towards the Equator, where the changes will be less extreme.

"All Things Are Connected"
The tilt of the Earth’s axis and its revolution around the sun creates seasons, which heavily affect people, their jobs, and their lifestyles.
How Can This Relate To Climate Change?
All things are connected in our world, so a change in the tilt of the Earth to 90 degrees would affect the whole world, especially the people.
There would be worldwide devastation due to the flooding of the polar ice caps in the summer season. Different ecosystems would be at danger of extinction with the drastic change in temperature.
There would be complete sun on one end of the planet and total darkness on the other. Each pole would alternate between six months of light and dark. The climate would be unbearably hot on the pole with full sun, and extremely cold on the pole with darkness. This would cause the climate to change drastically.
Causes and Effects
The cause of the different Earth tilt could be a catastrophic event on the planet such as an asteroid collision. This impact could kill millions of people on the Earth and disrupt the climate and weather. This would lead to extreme climate change, worse than what is happening in our world today. There would be extreme temperatures at the poles and a significant change in weather.
There would be a high population density away from the Earth’s poles after the disaster.
