How Google Uses Goats to Reduce Its Environmental Impact

I came across this fascinating article by Mashable which shares 10 fun facts about Google. 

Fact #5 (Google Rents Goats) was the most interesting in my opinion. Google rents goats from a company called California Grazing to reduce the amount of weeds and brush at its Headquarters in Mountain View, California. Google currently has 200 goats, a herder and a border collie, and it argues this unconventional method is "kinder" to the environment.
