The statement "The atmosphere will likely contain more carbon dioxide and less oxygen in the future..." is most likely to be true **if the rate of deforestation continues to increase.**

Deforestation reduces the number of trees that can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, which can lead to higher levels of carbon dioxide and lower levels of oxygen in the atmosphere. The other options listed generally suggest actions that would help reduce carbon dioxide levels and increase oxygen levels in the atmosphere.
