US Air Passengers Carried vs US Solar Energy Consumption
US Air Passengers Carried and US Solar Energy Consumption correlate at r = +0.49 over 41 years (1983–2023), p = 0.0013. With the time trend removed, r = -0.26. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.0013) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.26). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
