One Answer Trees store carbon dioxide. When they get cut down they realease this gas. It contributes to greenhouse gases. now that there is so much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere they are letting it offeven if they are not cut down. also scientists have found that over rainforests that clouds are forming higher letting little rain reaching rainforests drying them up. soon they will all be gone! Another Answer The answer above is very, very wrong. Yes, trees store carbon dioxide. However, when they are cut, this carbon dioxide is not released. On the contrary, it is permanently [b]sequestered[/b] in the wood and wood products made from that tree. (Next time, do some research before you delete information provided by someone who knows what he is talking about.) On the other hand, if we didn't cut them down, then they would eventually die. And when the die, they will rot. And When they rot, they will release that carbon dioxide. Moreover, once they are cut, if the acreage is replanted with seedlings, those seedlings will grow much faster, and store more carbon dioxide per year, than the older trees that were cut down. The one thing that should be avoided, however, is burning trees. Like rotting, this releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, only very suddenly, rather than gradually as with rotting.
