Well, it could be considered a sub- mode of "public" transport but I think it deserves a pledge of its own, don't you?

Walking and cycling are the best way to move! Not only are they efficient, affordable modes of transport, they keep you in shape, are a great way to get to know your community, and fabulous for spending time with your mates. And combined with public transport walking and/or cycling are a sure-fire eco-winner for getting to and from the workplace, up to the office, getting the kids to kindy and school...

So, get hoofing!

To add to this: Create a "walking bus"

Get families in your neighbourhood who have kids to join together and walk as a group to school. Starting from the farthest house, kids walk with a parent or two and "pick up" their schoolmates along the way.
The kids get to chat to each other, so they don't kick up a fuss about the walk, parents can let their kids walk to school knowing there's someone looking out for them, they get exercise, and it helps build community!
