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 Yizbet Verde and I'm an editor for New York Times Opinion.
And my work here focuses on immigration, the border, and Latino power in America.
Every four years, there's a bunch of hand wringing by both parties over the so called Latino vote.
This year is no different.
Since 2012, no Democratic candidate has been able to secure the level of support that Obama won at 71%.
And one of the things I've been thinking a lot about in this election is how Kamala Harris and Democrats have or have not been appealing to Latinos.
But then this happened.
I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island.
Of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now.
Yeah, I think it's called Puerto Rico.
Okay.
All right.
