Code:
mob
    proc
        season()
            if(!season)
                world << "Winter arrives with snow from the skies"
                season = 1
                for(var/turf/T in world)
                    if(T.icon_state == "grass")
                        T.overlays += new/turf/envoirment/snowing
                        sleep(200)
                        T.icon_state = "snowy"
                sleep(900)
                season()
            if(season)
                world << "Summer arrives with the sun shinning brightly"
                season = 0
                for(var/turf/envoirment/grass/T in world)
                    if(T.icon_state == "snowy")
                        T.overlays = null
                        sleep(100)
                        T.icon_state = "grass"
                sleep(900)
                season()

Is there anyone who can fix this?

Try making the second if statement to else if, not sure but I think you have a bad loop going :).

First off, try doing what derekjeterisgod said, and changing that second "if" to an "else". Secondly, I noticed that the first check statement, which reads:
for(var/turf/T in world)

Is shorter that the second one, which reads:
for(var/turf/enviornment/grass/T in world)
or something similar. Maybe you should try changing it so that they both read the same thing.

In DreamMaker;
Build -> Preferences for 'yourprojectname' -> Click 'Generate Debugging information'.
Then run again, and it'll tell you what line the error's on. Give us the code with that line in it, please.

Not to "else" to "else if"
