Nature.is articles: Grænn litur

The colour green is the opposite of red. They are strong side by side but lose their strength when mixed. From the beginning of Christianity the green colour has been a symbol of youth and fertility, a reminder of vibrant life. The colours red and green reflect the opposites in nature.
