Atmospheric CO₂ (Mauna Loa) vs US Electricity Use per Capita
Atmospheric CO₂ (Mauna Loa) and US Electricity Use per Capita correlate at r = +0.10 over 35 years (1990–2024), p = 0.583. With the time trend removed, r = -0.78. Not statistically significant.
Verdict: Not statistically significant. With n = 35, this correlation isn't statistically significant (p = 0.583). It could easily be chance.
