I can't say that climate change has affected me personally, and I feel lucky. Part of it because our family has moved several time, to places that have very different climates.

As a child, I lived in Ecuador, and the Galapagos Islands have lost many species, due to human interference. I also lived in Florida, and over the last decade, Hurricanes have been much fiercer than in the previous decades.
