New York Average Temperature vs US CO₂ Emissions per Capita
New York Average Temperature and US CO₂ Emissions per Capita correlate at r = -0.33 over 65 years (1960–2024), p = 0.0076. With the time trend removed, r = -0.10. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.0076) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.10). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
