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.
My name is Farah Stockman and I am a member of the New York Times editorial board.
I also write about foreign policy and domestic politics.
Well, as we come to the end of Biden's term, I think it's really important for Americans to reflect on the diversity of this administration.
It really is the most diverse administration in American history, and that was a goal of Joe Biden's.
On the campaign trail, Biden promised to appoint a cabinet that looked like the American people.
And he really did deliver.
More than half of his cabinet were people of color.
He had the first African American Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin.
Deb Haaland was the first Native American to serve in a cabinet as she was Secretary of Interior.
He had the first openly gay permanent Cabinet secretary, Pete Buttigieg.
The first female treasury secretary.
She, Janet Yellen.
