The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen has come up with a great idea about how to encourage guests to be healthy and eco-friendly at the same time. If guests cycle for at least 15 minutes in the hotel gym and create a subsequent 10 watts of energy, they will receive a $36 meal voucher. Not a bad deal, right?

The Crowne Plaza is already an environmentally conscious establishment, as is indicated by the solar panels on its roof and its goal to be carbon neutral, so it’s fitting that they would be the people to come up with this world-first plan to create an eco-incentive for healthy habits. Also, it makes sense that the program would start in Copenhagen because of the city’s long-standing bicycle culture.

The “cycle for your supper” program was just launched last Monday, and the Crowne Plaza told the BBC that they are hoping to expand it to all of their other hotels in the UK.
