The music group Coldplay plans to use their fans' energy to help provide power for their musical performances and to help the environment.
The band has promised to use methods that are sustainable. This includes using energy that does not add carbon gases to the atmosphere. The band hopes to cut the amount of carbon dioxide, or CO2, released by its business activities by 50 percent. The music stars have added special dance floors and energy-storing exercise bicycles to their latest world tour. The goal is to get fans to help power the show as they dance or spin by producing electricity. Bassist Guy Berryman suggested music fans will be more likely to accept changes to the concert experience if it is "a kind of opportunity to do something fun."
