For the second year in a row, Google hired goats to mow their lawn. This is Google’s way of reducing their carbon footprint. The 200 goats, according to Google, cost as much as a lawn service to bring in and would benefit the world by eliminating mower emissions, reducing noise pollution, restoring plant species and fertilizing while grazing.
I assume the goats are not just about minimizing Google’s carbon footprint. It is also a nice marketing and PR play for them. Here are some pictures:

When will I be able to target my ads on their backs via Google’s Content Network?
That’s a bit odd since goats don’t like to eat grass…they are browsers like deer and eat some noxious weeds, shrubs etc….sheep would work better.
You city people :-)
