US Dollar to British Pound vs US Annual CO₂ Emissions
US Dollar to British Pound and US Annual CO₂ Emissions correlate at r = -0.84 over 26 years (1999–2024), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = -0.63. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.63). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
