Arctic Sea Ice Extent (September) vs US Egg Consumption per Person
Arctic Sea Ice Extent (September) and US Egg Consumption per Person correlate at r = -0.30 over 45 years (1979–2023), p = 0.049. With the time trend removed, r = -0.01. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.049) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.01). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
