Google will be using a herd of goats to “mow” the lawns of it’s California Headquarters. Apparently, Yahoo is doing the same thing. It’s a great, low carbon, low noise-pollution approach to the grass mowing issue, and is a great public relations stunt in this environmentally conscious world.
The 200 goats can be seen wondering the lawns, the the reactions from employees have thus far been positive. Thought I am not sure what the people who would have made money mowing the lawns would say about this. I can just picture a union blockade trying to keep the goats from their meal. I see horns to the crotch.
The goats are not technically google employees, but they are entitled to a free completely organic lunch each day, according to google. To watch the goats grazing follow the link http://qik.com/video/1604803.
