Just read The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury.
This book mentions a lot of times the color green, if you read all the stories you'll notice it quite often...
Do you think the author does this as a literary resource or for the sake of semiotics and steganography?
On the Third Expedition the rocket lands on green land. It's funny, because there are conspiracy theories that say the NASA used Greenland (as opposed to the Red Planet) to record the Curiosity mission... Also, the town where the earth men end up is called Green Bluff.
But it could be all just coincidence... How would you explain the repeated reference of the color green?

Bradbury is big on colour. He makes note of it all the time.

So why in this book the big color is green?

its not a coincidence, he is just a massive autist is all
I haven't read it (yet) but I'm assuming it's a plot device in regard to the efforts of the colonists to make Mars habitable for life.

Nah, it's already habitable for humans

This book was very good, and Bradbury is a very competent author.
