Deforrestation
As trees grow, they remove and store carbon dioxide from the air
When trees are cut down or burned, their stored carbon is released into the air as carbon dioxide.
Greenhouse Effect:
Methane and CO2 enter into the atmosphere and increase the layer of GHGs, trapping heat which creates the enhanced greenhouse effect and warms the planet.
