The US plans to exploit Venezuela’s oil reserves could consume more than a tenth of the remaining global carbon budget to limit global warming to 1.5°C by 2050, according to an exclusive analysis by ClimatePartner.

Although the oil infrastructure is degraded after years of sanctions, President Donald Trump has…
