Trees take carbon dioxide from the air and through the process of photosynthesis, gives out oxygen.

Due to the amount of fossil fuels we burn, and various other emissions, humans have been increasing levels of carbon dioxide in the air - the biggest increase being the time during the Industrial Revolution.

Since there is more CO2 in the air which doesn't leave our atmosphere and isn't used up by trees (since they're being cut down), this forms a sort of "blanket" - which is where the Greenhouse Effect comes from.

This blanket of CO2 allows the sun's rays to enter our atmosphere but it does not allow the warmth to escape back into space - so deforestation (along with many other factors) could potentially warm up the Earth.
