Various human activities result in global warming. We depend on  fossil fuels like coal, petrol, Natural gas, Kerosene, etc. to get energy. In order to get energy from the fossil fuels, we burn them. Fossil fuels are high content in carbon so when we burn these fuels the content of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide(which is very dangerous) in the atmosphere increases. This is one reason for Global Warming. The other reason is we humans are crucially cutting down the trees. And not trying to increase the number of trees in our environment. This is another reason for global warming

How cutting down trees leads to Global Warming?
Well, as we know trees take in Carbon dioxide and give out oxygen during the day (during photosynthesis). As carbon dioxide is increasing in the atmosphere trees help us to clean the air. They take in this carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. This cools down the temperature. But we humans are cutting the trees. Which results in Global Warming.
