Effects of Deforestation. 1  Tree roots cause gaps in the soil. 2  Trees absorb water and give out some moisture to the atmosphere. 3  Birds, insects and animals lose their homes.  Plants soak up CO2 during photosynthesis and give out 1  oxygen. Insect plagues occur.

In addition to causing soil erosion, deforestation also results in larger amounts of greenhouse gases reaching the atmosphere because trees cannot absorb carbon dioxide once theyâre cut down.
