Effects. All of these activities contribute to the major deforestation we are seeing now, and this destruction is hugely detrimental to the environment. Drought. One effect of the clearing is drought. The rainforest produces half of its own rainfall as the trees release moisture into the atmosphere. As trees disappear, so does this rain, causing the remaining trees to dry up and die. The drought can also lead to wildfires, which destroy even more of rainforest.
Effects of Deforestation. 1  Tree roots cause gaps in the soil. This enables water and air to reach roots of plants. 2  Trees absorb water and give out some moisture to the atmosphere. When trees are chopped down, the rivers etc dry out and drought occurs. 3  Birds, insects and animals lose their homes.
