Catastrophic conditions have been declared as bushfires sweep across parts of New South Wales and South Australia. The death toll and number of injured firefighters has risen as a severe heatwave continues. Two people were confirmed dead in South Australia on Saturday, homes were destroyed and communities evacuated as the prime minister, Scott Morrison, was due to return to Australia after cutting short a family holiday to Hawaii

Trees weren't just catching fire, they exploded due to the oil content in the leaves.
+Who's did it's.????
0:22 – looks exactly like aerial shots of Dresden… complete devastation
Omg
I'm looking at the smoke out my window?. & it doesn't look very promising ☹️☹️☹️?…
See what happens when you ignore science and believe your lying CON’s!!
Mars we r coming soon
Australia needs more coal industry…
My prediction is that we will start to see Australia empty going forward as people take their kids away from the heat and smoke. Tourists will quickly spread the word and tourism will be brought to its knees. So no amount of New Year firework displays will ever help save what is now becoming a basket case! THERE IS NO HOPE FOR OZ I'm so sorry you have been let down. RIP Australia! Alan Jones 31 December 2019.
You're always in my thoughts and prayers Aussies. I hope much needed rain will be arriving soon to bring the relief you deserve.
Australia will not exist after a year
Its very danger country. We are so Lucky to live in Europe
I think Global Warming is kinda real amirite
eye opening event or just another day on earth
Our firefighters are trying their hardest but the flames keep blazing on
1 like=respect to all our firefighters
I'm just hoping it doesn't hit rural Victoria round the Goulburn Valley way bruh
Guy at the start is so deep "they say that they're okay but deep down I can tell that they're not" ahahah nah seriously though this is shocking Australia and will be talked about when my kids are parents …. its horrible and is only getting worse and not enough of us in australia care because it's not our homes or our brother falling…. we all need to do our part when this is finally over and all donate $50 just a small measly $50 from ALL OF US would drastically make a difference
💔💔💔💔💔💔
😭😭😭😔😔😔
It's the end of the world as we know it
Tony Abbott is fighting the fires, Zali Steggall where the bloody hell are you!!
Mother nature is angry. There is more to come. Keep ignoring her. We are in for a rude awakening. This is is just the beginning.
NGOs have been spraying aluminium oxide for years in austrailia as part
of the geo engineering program, aluminium oxide is a flame excellerant.
same as in california, some say its part of the UNs agenda 21.

If the people joined together and held prayers instead of singing Carols by candlelight on Christmas eve, the rains might come and the drought might end.
But paganism and hypocrisies have no borders… Every new year at the stroke of midnight starts off with fireworks in every city around the world, then they spend the rest of the year blaming the coal for emissions and climate change.
Do Greta Thunberg, and her young followers "who are still young enough believing that Santa Clause is real, have any idea how much emissions all of those fireworks create?..I guess they don't… That's what happens when they keep skipping school, encouraged by their low IQ teachers.
Our hearts are with you Australia. Stay strong.
I wouldn't be one bit surprised if some of the arsonists are climate activists…Never say never.
Oh mein Gott! Das ist grausam ….
Idk why the rain is more rare than before,i remember only a few years back,it rained everywhere like crazy,it seems we humans have screwed up something in the atmosphere … Start doing something governments,for real,bad result in our future is not the only option !
Nature is angry with us! Now nature is taking revenge on us
Haven't Australian's heard of solar power yet , they've got all that sunshine and they are still using coal fired power stations, burn burn , burn !
I do not wish harm on anyone but we should remember that there is something called the creator who is more powerful than all humans. There would never be justice in a stolen land. Australia might look nice to us but it is tainted by the blood of the original people. The laws of nature has spoken.We should show remorse and appease the creator first and show remorse for what you have done to the original people because the creator has come for his vengeance and there is nothing you and I can do about it. Fasten your seatbelts people we are in for a ride. BTW is am white.
The teens in Australia, who created a meme of their prime minister with his head buried in the sand as he defends the coal based economy, have the right idea. The same goes for the oil producing countries like Canada, Russia, the USA and the mid east too, lots of heads in the sand there too. As Albert Einstein famously said:
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results"
What I find especially horrifying is that the Australian, Saudi, USA and Brazilian governments have succeeded in blocking progress on climate action world wide, by their self serving blocking of a new agreement in Madrid. Our children and grandchildren will never forgive us if we fail to act. The carbon emissions graph is still heading steadily upwards and the climate impacts will only get bigger and spread more widely as we wait like Nero did in Rome, playing his fiddle as the fires erupted around him and destroyed the city. The combination of droughts in summer and heavier than than usual rain and flooding in other places in the fall/winter is not a coincidence. Climate change means massive alterations of weather pattens that have allowed humans to flourish over the last ten thousand years since human settlements started. The loss of the snow pack at high elevations in the Himalayas will have devastating impacts in India too.
The speed and power of these fires boggles the mind. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. 🙏🌧
Why comments are bagging Trump.
We dont care about America or politics at this point in time.
How that is relevant to Australian fires.
Lets see how many hundreds of millions in donations Australia receives from other countries to repay the favour for the hundreds of millions we send to every disaster.
I lost everything in a major flood three years ago.
No assistance, no financial support.
No concerned government employee called me to see how I am doing. But life goes on. Time to think about those effected by these devastating events.
Fellow Australians, stay safe.
Soooo what are we having for Christmas then ?
we all said there was going to start being problems like this with global warming
I hope you get rain fast🇦🇺🙏
100% ,,,,,100% ….they can create rain ,and push it away ,,,,they knew a big storm coming at China Olympics an used weather weapon to deflect ,,a man with an invention as small as a telescope can be pointed at the sky and create rain ,,100% ,,,feel bad for you aussies
ok you know what? i dont want to wait to the government !
i need 10 comments that want me to start and i start the process to make rain fall!
it will be difficult for me, because it is so far and big area, i hope something will happen
i wait for your comments just write "please start the process" or something similar
🙁 What can we (I) do? I'm serious… I have a spare room… I know I'm on a little island (eastern Canada) but .. What can we do??
summer down under?….is that how that works?
1:23 if a plane is dropping fire retardant that close to you, you should be running in the opposite direction, not risking your life filming it.
Massive uncleared fuel load on Federal and Private land, in a County that has fires every spring. What did they expect ?

Keep burning keep burning please
The real people of Australia will get their land back.
