If two variables are highly correlated, does this imply that changes in one variable cause changes in the other? If not, give at least one real-world example with high correlation that illustrates what else could cause the correlation to appear high. In your post, explain the variables, describe the correlation between them, and explain whether this high correlation implies any causation. Also discuss what other factors might be the cause of the high correlation.
