Its caused by the oxidization due to the massive amounts of green plants grown in the Emerald Triangle. The sheer potency of these plants gives off a green hue that attaches itself to bronze (and copper) through reverse osmosis. The 'green' that you see is actually black mold and it is highly advised that you either clean it immediately or take it to a sanitation facility. Hope this helps.
