Atmospheric Methane (global) vs US Gross Savings
Atmospheric Methane (global) and US Gross Savings correlate at r = -0.37 over 41 years (1984–2024), p = 0.017. With the time trend removed, r = +0.11. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.017) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.11). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
