Google Keeping It Green with Goats
Google's Goats
Google have done something utterly crazy yet again. In an effort to decrease their already low carbon foot print they have hired goats to “mow” the lawns of their California Mountain View head quarters.
According to Google they have few fields which need to be mowed occasionaly and cleared of weeds and brush which pose as potential fire hazards. The goats will be used every so often to clear the fields for about a week and will cost about the same as hiring a garden service, “goats are a lot cuter to watch than lawn mowers”.
This will add to Google’s aim of becomming carbon neutral which they have spent a lot of time and money on achieving. They have set the standards in data center efficiency and aim to do it with everything under Google’s control.
