Copenhagen launches new green experience economy initiative, CopenPay
==========
Copenhagen has launched a new green experience economy initiative called CopenPay. The initiative aims to encourage tourists to act more sustainably by allowing them to pay for various attractions with climate-friendly actions. CopenPay rewards actions such as cycling, participating in cleanup efforts, or volunteering at urban farms with access to a variety of enriching experiences and everyday wonders of Copenhagen. The system allows easy participation, with tourists being able to show a train ticket, arrive on a bicycle, or present other simple proof of green actions to redeem their rewards. The initiative is part of Wonderful Copenhagen's efforts to bridge the gap between tourists' desire to act sustainably and their actual behavior. CopenPay is launching with over 20 attractions this summer and aims to inspire other destinations as well. The CEO of Wonderful Copenhagen, Mikkel Aarø-Hansen, states that the initiative is an experimental and small step towards creating a new mindset among travelers to make traveling more sustainable. The Lord Mayor of Copenhagen, Sophie Hæstorp Andersen, praises CopenPay for combining the city's rich cultural life with a strong commitment to sustainability. The initiative aligns with Copenhagen's values and ambitions to promote sustainable solutions. CopenPay is inviting all tourists to participate this summer, with regular updates on available attractions and rewards at copenpay.com.
