Megan Fox & Brian Austin Green Teamed Up with PUBG Mobile & Global Green to Save The Amazon Rainforest

Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green have teamed up with PUBG Mobile (the official mobile version of PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS) to raise awareness and funds for Global Green, an internationally acclaimed nonprofit dedicated to the preservation of the Amazon by working with local partners on the ground in Brazil. Together, their goal is to help put out the fires and plant thousands of new trees in the world’s greatest rainforest.

Additionally, PUBG Mobile and Omaze have teamed up to offer fans the chance to win a Tesla Model S and $20,000. Fans can enter the sweepstakes at omaze.com/PUBGMOBILE. The contest will run until March 4, 2020, and continue to raise additional funds for Global Green in the months ahead.

Actors and humanitarians Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green hosted a fun-filled night that included a special PUBG Mobile live match, in front of an audience of Hollywood stars, industry executives, environmental activists, and generous donors. Megan and Brian even took the controls themselves, facing off in a 4-by-4 contest.

Megan’s team included Nikki Bella, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, and PUBG Mobile influencer Pickles.

While Brian recruited Allison Holker Boss, Artem Chigventsiv, and PUBG Mobile influencer McCoffee for his crew.

Brian’s co-stars Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Christine Elise, and James Eckhouse from “90210” also dropped in to show their support for this immense cause.

Other celebrity guests and #Fight4TheAmazon activists included “Grey’s Anatomy” stars James Pickens Jr. and Gregg German, actor Corey Feldman, recording artists Nash Overstreet and Hudson Thames, reality star Demi Burnett, professional dancer Anna Trebunskaya, and NASCAR driver Noah Gragson.

Amid this fierce battle, party guests also competed in a trivia contest hosted by TV personality and recording artist Kimberly Caldwell and her husband, Major League Soccer star Jordan Harvey. The contestants won special #Fight4TheAmazon backpacks made from 100% recycled water bottles.

High above the proceedings, aerialist duo Dari and Sagiv performed a jaw-dropping Amazon-themed act. Building on the theme, guests flashed their pearly whites in the custom #Fight4TheAmazon photo booth adorned with a backdrop of sumptuous fauna indigenous to the Amazon.

For those keeping score at home, Megan’s team prevailed in the live PUBG Mobile celebrity match. Megan and her team of Nikki, tWitch, and Pickles presented Global Green COO William Bridge with a check for $100,000 on behalf of Tencent and PUBG Mobile.

Fans who couldn’t attend in person had the option to tune in to live streams hosted by YouTube star, activist, and entrepreneur Rebecca Zamolo and simulcast on Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Rebecca took fans behind the scenes and conducted exclusive red carpet interviews with celebrity guests as they discussed their passion for protecting the planet and restoring the Amazon.

“We are so proud and honored to have been involved in PUBG Mobile’s #Fight4TheAmazon campaign,” said Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green. “Nothing is more important to us than protecting the planet from the potential devastation of climate change. The Amazon is a critical component of that, so this was a great opportunity for us to help make a positive impact for our kids and future generations. And while this is just the beginning and there is so much work left to be done, we know that when we all come together, we can make a huge difference.”

Tencent Games is the developer and publisher of PUBG Mobile. The company is dedicated to connecting people to build a brighter future and is proud of its work to raise awareness and critical funds for the Amazon, one of the planet’s most important ecosystems. 

PUBG Mobile’s donation enables Global Green to plant at least 50,000 trees in the Amazon to help restore this critical bio-diverse environment. By working with The Brazilian Ministry of the Environment, Global Green can obtain access to areas of the Amazon rainforest with an urgent need for new growth. And in Bolivia, Global Green’s office is building a scientific resource center to help raise healthy trees that are local to the environment. This will help repopulate the rainforest at a much faster rate. Additionally, the #Fight4TheAmazon campaign will hire indigenous farmers to plant the trees. This will provide them with the financial support that allows them to remain on their land and boost the native people and the local economy.

“We want to thank all of our amazing fans who helped make the #Fight4TheAmazon campaign a success,” said Vincent Wang, General Manager of Global Publishing Department at Tencent Games. “We also want to thank Global Green, a best in class environmental non-profit that deserves all the support we can give, along with our wonderful campaign hosts, Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green, who have gone above and beyond to raise awareness and funds for the cause.”

“Global Green is grateful to PUBG Mobile and Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green for helping us shine a spotlight on the urgent crisis in the Amazon. Funds raised from the #Fight4TheAmazon campaign will help our team restore the Amazon. In 2020, we will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day, which is a reminder that the world needs to come together for the future of our planet. The #Fight4TheAmazon campaign is a great first step in that direction,” said William Bridge, COO of Global Green.
