Isn't this a case of humans affecting environment not climate?

It's a very hard thing to stop in this case because even if the western countries stop using palm oil or boycotted it's use. The low cost makes it a popular oil throughout Asia and it's demand is ever increasing.

Deforestation affects the climate, probably more than carbon. We've cut down 46% of all trees, and they would've absorbed a lot of that carbon, provided us with a lot more oxygen, lowered temperatures, and weakened storms.

The irony is that that's part of the "solution" to combat the farce currently known as Climate Change.

Is that also the problem in Australia and Siberia? I thought it was because of rising temperatures and a lack of rain.
