PaladinAmber delivers humorous PSA regarding Australian wildfires Popular Australian Twitch streamer \u2018PaladinAmber\u2019 is taking matters into her own hands regarding her country\u2019s disastrous wildfires by creating her own \u201cnews segment\u201d concerning the natural disaster. Australia has officially declared a state of emergency after what CBS dubbed as \u201cout of control\u201d bushfires have overtaken large portions of the country, sending citizens to beaches and into the ocean for safety. According to ecologists in a report by the New York Post, nearly \u201chalf a billion animals\u201d have died due to the fires \u2014 a situation many Australians are upset is not being covered in mainstream news, nor being adequately handled by their Prime Minister. Thus, Australian streaming star PaladinAmber came to the rescue, interrupting her personal stream to remind viewers of the disastrous situation taking place in the Land Down Under. In a mock news segment, Amber put a humorous flair on a rather desperate scenario, using her high-quality production value to switch camera angles for comedic effect. \u201cAre you thirsty?\u201d Amber began. \u201cWell, so is our f**king country. Listen, this just in, Australia is still on fire and it\u2019s still burning, and I don\u2019t care what people say, it\u2019s very important.\u201d \u201c\u2026when a whole country is burning and no one\u2019s doing anything about it\u2026 and it still won\u2019t make national news, I like to think that maybe I should take matters into my own hands and do the news,\u201d she continued. \u201cSo here it is: help!\u201d That\u2019s not all: Amber is also raising money to donate to the courageous volunteers fighting the blaze, after they were notably encouraged not to crowdfund for fire fighting equipment. Considering the national disaster that’s happening and our current PMS mindset, I’m raising money today to donate to the people who are actually fighting the fires, spread the word https:\/\/t.co\/mtzO0bfQnX pic.twitter.com\/9XHM6ZvB26 \u2014 Paladin (@PaladinAmber) January 2, 2020 \u201cIdk I\u2019m just sad that when I walk outside now, the whole country is filled with smokey skies and my home is threatened!\u201d Amber tweeted regarding the situation. Idk I\u2019m just sad that when I walk outside now the whole country is filled with Smokey skies and my home is threatened! \u2014 Paladin (@PaladinAmber) January 1, 2020 Amber isn\u2019t alone in her efforts to help the movement: YouTuber and Drama Alert host Daniel \u201cKEEMSTAR\u201d Keem is likewise beginning a charity meant to support Australian fire departments, as tweeted out on the same day. Just got off the phone with my manager. We\u2019re working on a charity that will support the Australia Vol fire departments that are running out of resources with these #AustraliaBurning fires. Wanna do as much as I can when I\u2019m there in a week. For @Misfits & @ColdOnes podcast. \u2014 KEEM \ud83c\udf7f (@KEEMSTAR) January 3, 2020 Currently, Australia\u2019s wildfires have destroyed nearly 12.35 million hectares of land, marking one of the most deadly blazes in the country\u2019s history.
