deforestation increases the amount of green house gases for 3 main reasons.
1)Trees are cut down and removed therefore they cannot photosynthesis in which carbon dioxide (CO2) is converted to oxygen (O).
2)Trees may be cut down and left they then rot the rotting of the trees lets the CO2 be released and adds to the greenhouse gases.
3)The trees may be burnt which is also releasing CO2 into the atmosphere.
The greenhouse gases are methane, carbon dioxide and a little bit of water vapour.
So basically when we use things like cars or when we breathe, we release carbon dioxide into the air. The trees consume sunlight and carbon dioxide and release oxygen. So With less trees, there is more carbon dioxide becwuse there are fewer trees to get rid ot it.
Ozone is a greenhouse gas. Increase in amount of ozone will increase the temperature of the atmosphere.
The greenhouse effect is simply the atmosphere's ability to retain heat. This is caused by gases, which we call greenhouse gases. These gases trap heat, rather like greenhouses trap heat to help grow plants in cold climates.
It is called the Greenhouse effect.
Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Respiration and other aspects of the carbon cycle do not increase the amount as a similar volume is being removed at the same time.
The greenhouse effect does not increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect happens because of the carbon dioxide (and other greenhouse gases) in the atmosphere.It is the burning of fossil fuels that increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Burning coal, oil and natural gas releases age-old carbon dioxide that was laid down underground millions of years ago, so letting it free now puts an impossible burden on the carbon cycle, which cannot remove it.

Yes, cutting down forests (deforestation) means the trees can no longer remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. To combat this we have to replant the forests (reforestation) to reduce levels of greenhouse gases.
An enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
Deforestation alone does not end the world, but it can have significant negative consequences for ecosystems, biodiversity, and the climate. Deforestation disrupts the balance of ecosystems, contributes to climate change by releasing stored carbon into the atmosphere, and reduces the planet's capacity to absorb greenhouse gases. However, with proper conservation efforts and reforestation, we can mitigate the impacts of deforestation.
