If they cut all of the trees down and burn them. The climate will change by animals dieing because they dont have anny food water or a home to live in so they will die out or migrate somewere else.

By cutting down trees you are reducing the number of CO2 that is consumed by trees. Trees consume CO2 to conduct photosynthesis and turn it into O2 which is released. kept a result of the CO2, more heat is contained within the atmosphere because CO2 is a heavier gas and heat has a harder time escaping from it. Hope this helps! :-)
