It will result in less oxygen released into the atmosphere, erosion, animal extinction.
<span>Through the process of photosynthesis, trees
absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen into the
atmosphere. If the
number of trees decreases as the consequence of clear-cutting a rainforest, less oxygen
released into the atmosphere and more co2 buildup.</span>
<span>Further, tree roots hold the earth in place, so with less trees, erosion
could occur without the tree roots to hold the earth in place.</span>
<span>Nevertheless, trees represent habitat for many animals, therefore <span>if the
number of trees are cleared-out, loss of
habitat of many animals will occur and diversity could decrease.</span></span>
