Shrinking rain forests are problematic for endangered species that require these ares to survive. Plants and wildlife that are endangered may become extinct. Many more may go onto the endangered lists.
There is also the issue of the rain forest being a minor contributor to the absorption of CO2. In the event that CO2 is actually a growing problem, it would be a problem with the removal of even a supporting unit that helps absorb a small portion of the increased CO2.
