New Yorker Prays God Will Save Her Home From Rising Seas

Deborah Star Reed shows how high the water level reached when Hurricane Sandy flooded her home in Averne on the Rockaway peninsula in the Queens borough of New York, U.S., on Friday, Oct. 10, 2014. Reed, whose house was damaged during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, says science is fighting in vain against the encroaching ocean. Instead of leaving, the 63-year-old has renovated the interior, rebuilding the kitchen, and erected four bulkheads by her pier and a concrete wall along the water.
