7 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 John Morales.
I'm a meteorologist for Climadata Corporation.
I also serve as hurricane specialist for NBC Channel 6 in Miami.
So over the course of my broadcast meteorology career, which dates back to 1991, I've always been in Miami and Miami is an interesting news market.
Anything that is out there that has any chance of becoming a tropical storm or hurricane becomes lead news.
But the way that I've approached it over all these decades is just a facts approach.
I can tell an audience whether they really need to worry about something or they don't.
As Hurricane Milton was starting to form, I was asked to be on the news on NBC on Sunday night.
Sundays is also the day that NBC has the NFL football game.
A perfect Sunday night for football.
It's time to go to work.
We have to be aggressive.
