India all-rounder R Ashwin is the smartest cricketer around, not only on the field, but off it as well. One of India’s most successful spinners, Ashwin posted a lengthy tweet on X, where he spoke about climate change and the adverse effects one can see. Like many others, Ashwin too is caught in Cyclone Michaung in Chennai, where heavy flooding has taken place.
While posting a small clip of the OTT show ‘Kaala Paani’ on Netflix, Ashwin wrote, “I rest my case!🙏🙏We need to value lives and also put a value on our lives. If we don’t expect a certain standard for ourselves, no one else is going to knock on our door and give it to us.
&&&&& finally!
Climate change is real and make no mistake, all of us that think this is someone else’s problem have to wake up because it’s coming for us and we better be prepared.”
