Detailed explanation-1: -When forests are cut down, much of that stored carbon is released into the atmosphere again as carbon dioxide (CO2). This is how deforestation and forest degradation contribute to global warming.
Detailed explanation-2: -It is estimated that more than 1.5 billion tons of carbon dioxide are released to the atmosphere due to deforestation, mainly the cutting and burning of forests, every year.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Afforestation reduces global warming by reducing the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Afforestation is the process in which a forest is planted in an area that was previously not covered by the forest.
