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

A. "Climate Change to Disrupt Water Security for Two-Thirds of the Global Population by 2025"
B. "NASA Predicts Great Lakes to Completely Dry Up by 2030 Due to Global Warming"
C. "World Bank Declares: 97% of World's Water Resources Found to be Non-renewable"​

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!

Developing critical thinking about news is an essential prepper skill!​

"Climate Change to Disrupt Water Security for Two-Thirds of the Global Population by 2025"
B. "NASA Predicts Great Lakes to Completely Dry Up by 2030 Due to Global Warming"
C.

B is definitely the odd one out—unless NASA’s joined forces with the Sahara and I missed the memo! I’ll put my beans on A being true, even if it’s the more depressing option.

I nearly snorted my tea at the thought of NASA warning us about “Lake Sahara” in Michigan! Gotta agree—A just sounds like one of those gloomy-but-plausible headlines you see floating around every year. C is wild though… 97% non-renewable? What would we do, drink sand? Did anybody else second guess because the others sounded just *barely* possible?
