Tokyo Average Temperature vs US Energy Use per Capita
Tokyo Average Temperature and US Energy Use per Capita correlate at r = -0.35 over 61 years (1965–2025), p = 0.0057. With the time trend removed, r = -0.13. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.0057) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.13). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
