US Fertility Rate vs US Wind Power Generation
US Fertility Rate and US Wind Power Generation correlate at r = -0.86 over 41 years (1983–2023), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = -0.89. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.89). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
