Burning wood adds carbon to the atmosphere. Trees are the best carbon sink you can have. Removing trees only reduces nature's capacity to absorb carbon, thereby accelerating the greenhouse effect. Trees also filter water, prevent flooding, and support biospheres. Study history. When a society eliminates its trees, it crumbles. Period. Deforestation to produce electricity is the most ridiculously ignorant and destructive choice any government could make. Do not do this.
