Goats, Google and Cricket

October 15th was Blog Action Day and the topic this year was climate change. Bloggers from all over the place wrote about the environment, including SXM bloggers Barbara and Gigi.

The Official Google Blog also did a post, which was a tour of the "green" features of their global headquarters. I got a kick out of one of their environment-saving ideas, which was to clear a field of weeds and brush using a herd of goats!

They had to pay someone to get the goats over there but here in St. Maarten the goats tend to just turn up. I noticed some goats doing their part for the environment a week or two ago at the cricket field next to Cost-U-Less.



Goats are pretty cute when they are small, notice the ears flopping as they run.




I suppose they were helping to prepare the field for last week's cricket match.



Either that or playing Twister.
