I think NYT is correct in this sense: I haven’t heard Harris herself say much about ‘climate change’ let alone ‘global warming’.

We all get that. Candidates tend to stay away from talking about stuff that makes people feel bad because it sticks to them. But I’ve not heard her even address expanding renewables as rapidly as possible, or even heat pumps. No doubt that’s the advice she’s getting. One reason is that the cars we’re driving are a major source of CO2. Nobody’s touching that elephant.
