A novel idea from Sweden. How do you convince people to make positive behavioural choices? Make it fun. After turning a staircase into a piano, 66% more people used it than before, leaving the adjacent escalator almost redundant.

In a similar vein, getting the elderly to exercise through use of pensioners’ playgrounds is a fantastic idea that is having brilliant results across Europe.
