As a result of A and B, where A and B should be parallel.

A: The removal of (noun phrase; the removal is a noun phrase)
B: The clearing of (noun phrase; the clearing is a noun phrase)

A noun phrase is parallel with another noun phrase. However if only 'clearing' was mentioned (without the article 'The') then 'clearing of' would have been a participial phrase.

Participial phrases are NOT parallel with noun phrases.

B. years as a result of removing - removing is a participial phrase.

D. years, which is result of removing
In correct use of which. Which refers to years here and removing again is a participial phrase.

E. years, which is a result of the removal of
Again incorrect use of which.

Between A and C, the use of 'as a result' sounds better than 'resulting'
'resulting from the removing of the' sounds awkward.

Since A does a better job with parallelism and is less awkward A seems fine.

Btw showbu how do you spell 'rabbit' :P
