If your family is pooping in your yard and sleeping together in the same bed, you might be 'carborexic,' according to some ecology experts. These individuals call themselves the “Dark Greens†to signify their total and complete dedication to reducing their carbon footprint on the planet.
Others, however, call the Dark Greens carborexic and deem their behavior obsessive-compulsive and unhealthy.
