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 = +0.71 over 35 years (1990–2024), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = +0.88. Holds up after detrending.

Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.88). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
