  • Hi, I'm Josh Hayner, 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.

  • If you want to support the kind of journalism that we're working on here on the climate and environment desk at the New York Times, please subscribe on our website or our app.

  • From the New York Times, it's the headlines.

  • I'm Tracie Mumford.

  • Today's Monday, September 2.

  • Here's what we're covering.

  • Israel is in the middle of a labor strike this morning as protesters demand that the government reach a ceasefire deal to bring the remaining hostages home.

  • Many schools and businesses are closed, some hospitals have cut services, and nearly all early flights out of the Tel Aviv airport were canceled.

  • The uproar has been spreading since the israeli military announced this weekend that it found the bodies of six hostages in tunnels underneath the city of Rafa in Gaza.

  • Israel says they were killed by Hamas shortly before soldiers reached them, and the news of their deaths brought thousands of people to the streets last night.

  • The protesters said the hostages could have been saved if the government had agreed to a ceasefire earlier and that an immediate deal is the best chance to recover the 100 people, living and dead still being held in Gaza.

  • We demand the deal to be right now.

  • That's why we're marching for.

  • That's what we're shouting for.

  • The mood in Israel is generally somber and also angry as we witness what amounts to the biggest expression of dissent against the government since the war started.

  • Patrick Kingsley is the Jerusalem bureau chief for the Times.

  • Many Israelis are furious that Hamas has killed six hostages in captivity in recent days.
