Deforestation May Contribute Toward Climate Change Because

Deforestation may contribute toward climate change because

A) the trees naturally trap heat near the Earth's surface, and the loss of trees allows this heat to escape into space through the atmosphere.
B) it leads to habitat loss for many forest species, which invade nearby marginal habitats, including those used by humans.
C) loss of trees disrupts the carbon cycle, limiting the amount that is absorbed by plants, and increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
D) the forest canopy reflects some solar radiation back into space, allowing more of it to penetrate to the Earth's surface.
E) it leads to salinization of the land.
