the burning of fossil fuel and deforestation effect the envrionment because when we burn fossil fuel we pollute the air with smoke and toxins which are not healthy for the body to intake nor for plants decreasing their health. Deforestation will lead to losing oxygen we need to breath since trees and plants produce oxygen and take carbon dioxide which we give off and if we loose those trees we will not be able to breath

What human activity contributes to the greenhouse effect?
Deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
How do fossil fuels and deforestation affect the environment?
Burning fossil fuels affect the environment by releasing CO2 or carbon dioxide which creates an invisible blanket in Earth's atmosphere. The blanket traps the sun's rays making the planet's temperature increase. This is called the greenhouse effect. Deforestation removes the trees that were taking carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. So both things are contributing to global warming.

List of positive effects of fossil fuels on the environment?

What is the difference between the Greenhouse Effect and fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy sources that can be burned to get energy. The Greenhouse Effect is, in part, the result of burning fossil fuels. In this example, fossil fuels would be a causative agent that creates an effect on the environment, specifically, the Earth's atmosphere.
What increases the temperature around the planet?
The enhanced greenhouse effect,which is caused by extra amounts of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide,which is caused by burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
What are three causes and one effect?
Three causes of climate change are deforestation, burning fossil fuels, and industrial activities. One effect of climate change is rising sea levels leading to coastal flooding and erosion.
How are fossil flues effecting the environment?

How does burning of fossil fuels effect on human?
the burning of fossil fuel affected us and can probably cause cancer
did the greenhouse effect increase?
Yes. When we started burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and cutting down the great forests of the worldd (deforestation), the normal greenhouse effect began to change into the accelerated, or enhanced greenhouse effect which we now have.
What are humans doing to add to the green house gas effect?
burning fossil fuels, chopping down trees and generally killing the environment
