Leaves are green because of a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants make their own food. It absorbs sunlight and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, giving plants the energy they need to grow. The green color of chlorophyll is what gives leaves their green color.
