Answer: True

Explanation: Slash and burn deforestation increases the amount of carbon-di-oxide as a result of combustion. The burning process releases carbon-di-oxide into the atmosphere this depletes the amount of the oxygen in the atmosphere. The trees that are cut down liberates oxygen during photosynthesis, there won't be oxygen from the deforested trees.
