What sustainable transportation options do you use regularly?

I'm trying to reduce my carbon footprint from transportation but I live in an area without great public transit. What sustainable transportation options have you found workable in different situations? I'm curious about everything from daily commutes to occasional trips.

Sustainable transportation options I use regularly:

1. Biking - my main commute method when weather permits (about 8 months of the year)
2. Public transit - for longer distances or bad weather
3. Walking - for anything under 1 mile
4. Carpooling - when I need to drive, I try to fill the car
5. Electric scooter share - for quick trips downtown
6. Train for intercity travel instead of flying when possible
7. Combining errands - one trip instead of multiple

I live in a city with decent transit, but even in car-dependent areas, combining trips and carpooling make a difference. Also, proper tire inflation and regular maintenance if you do drive - improves fuel efficiency significantly.
