The sky takes on a green tinge when there is a change of temperature in low level water laden clouds. This can indicate that there is a cold area that can cause a tornado if the surrounding area is warmer, a hail storm as the frozen water is released or other violent weather phenomena.

Why is the sky blue and the grass green?

The sky appears blue due to Rayleigh scattering, where shorter blue wavelengths are scattered by gases and particles in the atmosphere. Green color in grass comes from chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for absorbing light energy to carry out photosynthesis.


Why is the sky blue while the grass is green?

The sky is blue because the atmosphere scatters sunlight. Light with shorter wavelengths (blue, purple, violet) is scattered more in the atmosphere, so the sky appears blue; this is the same reason that sunsets and sunrises appear red and orange: at sunset/sunrise, the sun's light hits the atmosphere at a low angle, increasing the distance that the light must travel through the atmosphere. Thus, more colors are 'scattered out', even the blue-end of the spectrum, leaving red and orange colors.


Is the sky green or blue?

The sky appears blue during the day due to Rayleigh scattering, which preferentially scatters short-wavelength blue light. At sunset, the sky can take on a green hue due to the way longer-wavelength light interacts with the atmosphere.


What color is Earth when you look at it from space?

The 'sky' in space is an inky blackness. The sky as we know it is not seen from space as it is just the way light refracts in our atmosphere. Looking down at the earth from space, you cannot see the blue sky, only clouds, land and water. == ==


Why the sky changes color at sunset?

During sunset, sunlight passes through more of the Earth's atmosphere, scattering shorter wavelengths like blue and violet, leaving longer wavelengths like red and orange to dominate the sky. This scattering effect causes the sky to change color as the sun sets.

What color is blue sky under green light?

The blue sky would appear green under green light because the green light would dominate the color seen by our eyes. The color of the sky is determined by the light that is reflected off of it, so when green light is shone on a blue sky, the green light will be the dominant color that is reflected.

What colour would the grass be if the sky was not blue?

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a joke or not. There's no particular relationship between the color of the sky and the color of the grass. The photosynthetic compound in plants does need to absorb a color that the sky does not, but violet or red would work approximately as well as green, and there are in fact types of algae that use compounds other than chlorophyll and which are not green.
