    I first learned about the concept of “green with envy” back in 6th grade listening to “You Can’t Do That” Beatles’ lyrics: ♪♫"Everybody’s green, cause I’m the one who won your love. But if they’d seen you talking that way, they’d laugh in my face." ♫♪

    It means your jealous of those who are environmentally conscious.

    How did green get associated with envy anyhow? I look good in green.

    I guess it’s better to be envied than pitied.

    Adding a comma might help, as in someone is green, with envy.

    So the first part is false and the second part is true.

    Actually, if you put in a comma, that is what that phrase would mean.
