    Green 

    is the color between blue and yellow on the visible spectrum. It is evoked by light which has


    a dominant wavelength of roughly 495–570 nm. In subtractive color systems, used in painting and
    color printing, it is created by a combination of yellow and cyan; in the RGB color model, used on
    television and computer screens, it is one of the additive primary colors, along with red and blue,
    which are mixed in different combinations to create all other colors. By far the largest contributor to
    green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize and convert sunlight
    into chemical energy. Many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a
    green hue themselves as camouflage. Several minerals have a green color, including the emerald,
    which is colored green by its chromium content.
    During post-classical and early modern Europe, green was the color commonly associated with
    wealth, merchants, bankers and the gentry, while red was reserved for the nobility. For this reason,
    the costume of the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci and the benches in the British House of
    Commons are green while those in the House of Lords are red.[1] It also has a long historical tradition
    as the color of Ireland and of Gaelic culture. It is the historic color of Islam, representing the lush
    vegetation of Paradise. It was the color of the banner of Muhammad, and is found in the flags of
    nearly all Islamic countries.[2]
    In surveys made in American, European, and Islamic countries, green is the color most commonly
    associated with nature, life, health, youth, spring, hope, and envy.[3] In the European Union and
    the United States, green is also sometimes associated with toxicity and poor health,[4] but in China
    and most of Asia, its associations are very positive, as the symbol of fertility and happiness.
    [3]
     Because of its association with nature, it is the color of the environmental movement. Political
    groups advocating environmental protection and social justice describe themselves as part of
    the Green movement, some naming themselves Green parties. This has led to similar campaigns in
    advertising, as companies have sold green, or environmentally friendly, products. Green is also the
    traditional color of safety and permission; a green light means go ahead, a green card permits
    permanent residence in the United States.
