14 分钟Hi, I'm Josh Haner and I'm a staff photographer at the New York Times covering climate change.
For years, we've sort of imagined this picture of a polar bear floating on a piece of ice.
Those have been the images associated with climate change.
My challenge is to find stories that show you how climate change is affecting our world right now.

This is the Opinions, a show that brings you a mix of voices from New York Times Opinion.
You've heard the news.
Here's what to make of it.
I'm Patrick Healy, deputy editor of Opinion, and I've covered American politics for decades as a reporter, editor, and running our New York Times focus groups.
David?
I'm David French, a columnist for Opinion.
David, you and I have been watching the election results come in tonight, and just an important caveat, we are recording this at about 11:30pm on Tuesday, and we don't have a declared winner yet in the presidential race.
But one thing looks clear right now.
Donald Trump is favored to win.
And even if Kamala Harris does equally, this election is far from a repudiation of Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.
It looks instead like a lot of Americans think Trump is the best available answer to their worries and their hunger for change.
And, David, I wanna bear down on this with you because you, as a lifelong conservative, you were someone who hoped that the Republican Party would move away from Trump.
And I just wanna start off and ask you, how are you feeling right now?
I am not remotely surprised right now, Patrick, by anything that I'm seeing, not one thing, not one state, not one city, not one precinct.
I think all of us going into this, who had taken a look at it from the sort of the most coldly analytical standpoint, knew a couple of things right away.
