Explanation of the following effect of deforestation:

The deforestation greatly effects on the environment. Plants absorb CO2 from the atmosphere to perform photosynthesis. If plants are destroyed, then the level of CO in the atmosphere will rise. As a result, CO will trap more heat radiations, thereby adding to global warming. An increase in the temperature of the Earth will disturb the natural water cycle. As a result, there will be a change in the rainfall pattern. This could lead to floods or droughts.
