London Average Temperature vs US Milk Consumption per Person
London Average Temperature and US Milk Consumption per Person correlate at r = -0.29 over 63 years (1961–2023), p = 0.023. With the time trend removed, r = +0.13. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.023) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.13). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
