US CO₂ Emissions per Capita vs US Female Labor Force Participation
US CO₂ Emissions per Capita and US Female Labor Force Participation correlate at r = +0.72 over 35 years (1990–2024), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = +0.85. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.85). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
