Answer: Some effects can be Climate change, diseases, loss of habitat for animals and humans, and floods.

Step-by-step explanation: When you wipe out rainforests, the climate changes from not having trees and plants and streams. Diseases break out from not having enough food or water and no protection in shelters from mosquitos and other insects. Floods occur when rainforests are wiped out because it's just flat and often times low land. Whereas, leaving the forest can provide shelter from water and flooding. I hope this helps!
