How does the destruction of forests contribute to levels of atmospheric carbon?

Destruction of forests will contribute to increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As, forests utilize carbon dioxide for the purpose of food synthesis in photosynthesis, therefore they fix atmospheric carbon into glucose. Fewer trees will absorb less amount of this carbon from atmosphere.

Explanation:

Fewer trees leads to smaller amounts of carbon dioxide being absorbed from the atmosphere.
