One option would be cutting down a lot of the trees in a forest to make more furniture. This would one of the most important options because trees turn carbon into oxygen so by getting rid of trees, we add more carbon to the air.

Answer: Cutting down of most of the trees in the forest to make furniture.

Deforestation is the phenomena of clearance, clearing or removal of forests to make the land available for human use like agriculture, industrialization and urban development. Carbon from air is taken up by trees in order to prepare their food by the process of photosynthesis and releases oxygen. Cutting down of trees will increase the level of carbon dioxide in the environment.
