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.
Deforestation has many negative effects on the environment. The most dramatic impact is a loss of habitat for millions of species. Seventy percent of Earthâs land animals and plants live in forests, and many cannot survive the deforestation that destroys their homes. Deforestation also drives climate change.Forest soils are moist, but without protection from sun-blocking tree cover they quickly dry out.eforestation is clearing Earth's forests on a massive scale, often resulting in damage to the quality of the land. Forests still cover about 30 percent of the worldâs land area, but swaths the size of Panama are lost each and every year.
