What we knew already

This was in today's Advertiser:


Apparently, new research by the University of Sydney suggests that:

children who walk each day [to school] are less likely to be obese, compared with children who are driven to school.

I thought we knew that already but it is good to have research to back it up.

Strange then that other than the one token Ride or Walk to School Day each year, we do not do a great deal to encourage are and make it easy for our children to choose more active modes of transport.
