California is one of the most environmentally-conscious states in the union, and the Los Angeles Redevelopment Agency has continued the trend by hiring 100 goats to clear brush in a downtown Los Angeles plot. Los Angeles residents and downtown workers alike marveled at this unlikely scene. Sam Vera, an auto repairman, remarked as he snapped a photograph, "This is absolutely beautiful. It's a wonderful contrast to the big buildings around here." The Los Angeles Redevelopment Agency head Cecilia Estolano said that she could rent the 100 goats for $3,000, as opposed to the $7,000 it would cost to hire men with gas-powered trimmers. Another advantage is that goats are an environmentally-friendly way to clear away brush that is not only unsightly, but could also be a potential fire hazard. Anyway, goats are also so darn cute, so who could resist?
