Natalie Doan，14，
has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway，
New York．Living just a few blocks from the beach，
Natalie can see the ocean and hear the waves from her hous e. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says ．
On October 29，2012，
that ocean turned fierce．That night，
Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast，
and Rockaway was hit especially hard．Fortunately，Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s b ridges closed．
When they returned to Rockaway the next day，
they found their neighborhood in ruins．Many of Natalie's frie
nds had lost their homes and were living far away．All around her，people were suffering，
especially the elderly．Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn．
In the following few days，
the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natal ie．Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and to ys．Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others reb uild．Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings．
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me，”N atalie says，“but I can always choose how I deal with it．”Natalie’s choice was to help．
She created a website page，
matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help．Natalie posted information about a boy named Patrick，
who lost his baseball card collection when his house burned d own．Within days，Patrick’s collection was replaced．
In the coming months，her website page helped lots of kids：Christopher，who received a new basketball；Charlie，
who got a new keyboard．Natalie also worked with other orga nizations to bring much-
needed supplies to Rockaway．Her efforts made her a famou s person．Last April，
she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurrica ne Sandy Champion of Change．
Today，the scars(创
痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway，
but hope is in the air. The streets are clear，
and many homes have been rebuilt．“I can’t imagine living a nywhere but Rockaway, ” Natalie declares．“My neighborhoo d will be back，even stronger than before．”

A solution(解决办
法)to the problem may be turning to our forests．A new report says forests can help reduce hunger and improve nutrition if t hey are properly managed．
Bhaskar Vira is the director of the University of Cambridge Co nservation Research Institute and an expert of the Internation al Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO)．It recen tly released a report at the United Nations about forests and j
ungle food．
Mr．Vira says crops that grow on trees can help feed people l iving in and around forests．He said，
“It’s like an insurance policy．Having access to those tree-based food is hugely important when you can’t buy food from other sources or when your crops failed.”
The report says that forest health and economic value will imp rove when people who live in or near forests are given greater control of them．For example，
a project in Ghana aims for proper management of forests an d fields．The people involved hope to grow the Allanblackia p lant．The oil from its seeds can be used in soap，
beauty products and food．
Okai Michael Henchard leads the project．He says he will hel p people who live nearby．He says they will earn money and get trees on their land．The trees provide shade and improve the air quality．Mr．Henchard says the project also helps fig ht against climate change．
