Not only do trees produce oxygen but they also contain a lot of carbon. When trees are burned or left to rot, CO2 is released into the atmosphere (which is bad).
deforestation is the largest contributor to overall global climate change due to agriculture etc
photosyntes is super important, and trees are very important - parks etc are not exclusively for recreational purposes.
the problem is - who have the right to deny the periphery the right to do whatever they want in their own country? we prevent them from doing the shit we did to get decent
