“The Yasuní National Park is home to one of the most diverse collections of plants and animals on the planet. But beneath this 3,800-square-mile swath of forest lies another kind of treasure: crude oil. More than 1 billion barrels of it.

As oil companies carve up more of the rainforest, a new study says no place in the world uses more oil from beneath the Amazon than California.
