US Wind Power Generation vs US Birth Rate
US Wind Power Generation and US Birth Rate correlate at r = -0.91 over 42 years (1983–2024), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = -0.56. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.56). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
