Trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide.
Cutting trees can cause global warming. Trees absorb carbon dioxide that is causing our greenhouse effect to get stronger.
Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air. They store the carbon and release the oxygen. They do this during all the time they are growing. Logging and cutting down trees means they are not taking carbon dioxide from the air. Because carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas causing global warming, cutting down trees increases the warming. Global warming means 'all over the world'. So cutting down trees in Indonesia will affect the warming in Los Angeles. Cutting down trees in Los Angeles will affect global warming in Djakarta.
Humans burning coal, oil and natural gas increases atmospheric CO2.Deforestation, cutting down trees, means that less carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere.Volcanic eruptions can put carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, but not nearly as much as fossil fuels.
More living things such as humans are being brought into existence, breathing out more carbon dioxide. Factories, cars and planes also contribute to rising carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in the atmosphere from the smoke they release. Plants such as trees are supposed to convert the carbon dioxide into oxygen, but we keep cutting them down. In short - because of the human race.
If the trees are burned, the carbon dioxide released will raise airborne levels, and greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere. But just cutting down the trees stops their process of REMOVING carbon dioxide from the air, which all green plants do.
Yes. Cutting down trees will increase carbon dioxide levels.
Cutting down trees does increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the air because trees take the carbon monoxide in the air and turn it into oxygen in a process called photosynthesis. Without as many trees then there is going to be more carbon dioxide in the air.
Cutting trees can cause global warming. Trees absorb carbon dioxide that is causing our greenhouse effect to get stronger.
Because trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and if they cut them down we will have more carbon dioxide.
Yes because trees and plants absorb carbon dioxide and store the carbon.

When we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Also, it will increase when the plants and trees are being cut down because when this happens, there will be nothing to absorb carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide continues to increase, global warming will also worsen.
the carbon dioxide will increase
The answer is human activity! The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere) are the main causes of the increase.
More living things such as humans are being brought into existence, breathing out more carbon dioxide. Factories, cars and planes also contribute to rising carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in the atmosphere from the smoke they release. Plants such as trees are supposed to convert the carbon dioxide into oxygen, but we keep cutting them down. In short - because of the human race.
