Answer:

The trees of tropical forests, like all green plants, take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen during photosynthesis. ... When forests are cut down, much of that stored carbon is released into the atmosphere again as CO2. This is how deforestation leads to global warming.
