What does the color green signify?

In Western cultures in particular, green can be symbolic of:

  • Growth
  • Wealth

  • Envy

  • Quality

The overriding association with nature is due to the abundance of green plant life on Earth. Plants contain a green pigment called chlorophyll that allows them to absorb energy from light.

The color can also be associated with safety and permission, thanks to green traffic lights (which signal when it’s safe to proceed).
