Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

More and more people are using this form of travel to get around the continent, using high-speed routes and a network of night trains that continues to expand. We traveled from Madrid to Prague and witnessed how the future of European transportation is clean and fast

At least in Finland, it has become surprisingly normal to keep your shoes on the train seat. For the second picture... It does say "two interrail travellers", but that could very well be because those are the only one of the three travelling together that you can see reasonably well on the picture. So, maybe the two know it's okay for the third? Also: Who took this photo, anyway?

I think your comment is whataboutism. It is as if you don't want the core topic of the article to be discussed.

Edit: Or trolling.

Your take on the top pic is absurd and contrary to both the caption and what we can see. In your world, keeping shoes on is a crime, AND taking them off is a crime, regardless of context? Really

You here to boast about the moral/olfactory/hygeine superiority of chopping one's own feet off? Do you have the slightest idea of the difficulties involved in cleaning/maintaining the interface between a stump and a prosthetic? ... or would you eagerly condemn an amputee for taking their prosthetic off or keeping it on in public as well? Get bent.
