Read this passage and identify one example of correlation. Also explain why the example you have chosen does not represent causation.

Health officials believe all people should begin composting - saving vegetable and other organic waste rather than throwing it away in the trash. The compost can then be used to fertilize gardens, which will increase the output of each garden and lower grocery bills. Trash bills will also be lower, since there won't be as much trash to be hauled away each week.

    An example could be that composting and lower trash bills would be an example of a correlation. Causation refers to one thing directly causing the other to occur, and the last sentence doesn't make any sense out of context with the passage.

    Composting won't lower trash bills, there are many other factors that go into gardening other than composting. Including what a person grows and the climate they live in. Hardly anyone has enough land to grow enough food to really reduce the amount of food they need to buy.

    Correlation but not causation.
