Whether logging is legal or illegal is not the point, but rather whether the logging is occurring or not. If it were perfectly legal to slash and burn tropical rain forests the effect would be the same if we denuded the same acreage illegally.
Logging itself liberates CO2 sequestered by trees, eliminating one substantial CO2 sink. In addition, forest area has a lower albedo than crop land and range land. This has an impact on weather patterns, which over extended periods of time impacts the climate.
