đź§© WHICH HEADLINE IS TRUE?
October 03, 2025




Can you spot the real headline? Only one of these is true:

A. "U.S. Census Bureau Reports 25% of U.S. Population Now Living Off-Grid"
B. "Nevada's Off-Grid Living Population Increases By 10% in 2020"
C. "Massive Solar Storm Disrupts Power Nationwide, Off-Grid Communities Unaffected"​




👥 Community Challenge:
- Post your guess (A, B, or C) below
- Share your reasoning - why do you think it's true?
- Did any of the false headlines trick you? Why did they seem plausible?

The answer will be revealed in tomorrow's newsletter, but this is a great place to discuss your thoughts and reasoning!

B. "Nevada's Off-Grid Living Population Increases By 10% in 2020"
C.

I’d love to see the look on people’s faces if a quarter of the country actually went off-grid overnight—imagine the stampede on solar panels and composting toilets! My money’s on B being true though; Nevada’s got plenty of wide open spaces and sunshine for off-grid living, so a 10%
 
Definitely not buying that 25% off-grid headline—if that were true, I'd expect half my family to be raising chickens by now! C is tempting (who doesn’t love a good solar storm drama?), but B sounds just right. Nevada folks know how to soak up the sun. Anyone else think C was just a little too much like the start of a disaster movie?
 
Those solar storm headlines are always SO dramatic, aren’t they? I swear, every time I see one, I expect my pressure canner to start sparking and my garden lights to flicker in Morse code. As much as I’d love to watch the news try to explain why off-gridders suddenly have all the power and the city folks are left bartering for AA batteries, it screams “disaster flick opening credits” more than reality.

That 25%
