But in fact between 25 and 30 percent of the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere each year â 1.6 billion tonnes â is caused by deforestation.
Forests, trees and plants are like carbon sinks that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and turn it into oxygen. We need large expanses of forest to remove carbon dio â¦ xide which is a greenhouse gas contributing to global warming.Deforestation means cutting down trees which directly affects the environment so that there will be less pure air or oxygen to breath as trees serve to clean air by taking in CO2 and releasing O2.e need large expanses of forest to remove carbon dio â¦ xide which is a greenhouse gas contributing to global warming.
